This is a biggy. Deep, rich and full-bodied with sweet tannins, I was blown away by this small-production Aglianico produced about an hour's drive outside of Naples by molto gentile Alessandro Lonardo and his daughter Antonella. The noise is a delight, but on the palate it will amaze: rich black fruits, violets, black olive, dried roses, a touch of 5 spice. The finish on this wine goes on and on. This is a super structured wine and will lay down for a good long while. If you're a fan of big wines, this will not disappoint you. Pair this with roasted meats like lamb scottadito.

Parfymerad. Viol, lakrits, mörk frukt. Underbar syra och taniner. Inte helt komplett än. Några år till så blir det nog ännu mer komplexitet.
