Evolved and engaging wine with a smoky, herbal, and woody onset, followed by a luscious and mellow chocolate and pepper finish. meanwhile it has some depth, its lasting impression is somewhat lacking, leaving the tongue with a sense of unfinished business.

The Macchialupa Aglianico Irpinia offers an evolved profile with flinty herbal notes and a luscious chocolate-pepper finish. While some appreciate its depth and mellow complexity, others find the finish lacking, leaving an impression of incompleteness.
The 2018 Macchialupa Aglianico Irpinia presents a deep garnet hue, indicative of its robust character. On the nose, it unfurls layers of dark cherry, plum, and a subtle hint of dried herbs, underscored by a whisper of earthy minerality. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with firm tannins providing a solid backbone to the wine's concentrated fruit core. A vibrant acidity enhances its complexity, leading to a lingering finish marked by notes of black pepper and a touch of anise. This Aglianico stands as a quintessential expression of Irpinia's terroir, offering both depth and elegance.
