Re Manfredi 2011 Aglianico del Vulture

Country: Italy / Southern Italy
Variety: Aglianico
Winery: Re Manfredi /

This brooding red opens with aromas of dried plum, espresso, toast and dark spice. The palate shows the heat of the vintage, offering dried black cherry, fig and a licorice note alongside bracing tannins. Give the tannins another year or two to soften then drink up to capture the remaining fruit.
