Country: Italy / Il Sigillo
Variety: Aglianico Southern Italy
Winery: Cantine del Notaio / Aglianico del Vulture
Il Sigillo, which translates to “the seal,” opens with huge intensity and balance, which sets this expression of Aglianico apart from the rest. It delivers sweet, ripe tannins and a larger-than-life mouthfeel that promises a long future ahead. The nose shows a black fruit layer, backed by spice, leather, rum cake and tobacco notes. Keep for 10 years or more.
