Vini La Quercia Aglianico Puglia is a robust, fruity red made in the Puglia region, often referred to as the 'Heel of Italy'. The high elevation vineyards from which the Aglianico grapes come from, are planted on predominantly clay heavy soils. This helps retain moisture during the warm dry, growing season and allows Vini La Quercia to dry-farm the vines. The grapes are picked by hand, crushed and fermented in stainless steel vats, with the focus on light extraction to create wines that are immediately open and ready to drink in their youth.
