Cantina del Taburno Aglianico del Taburno Fidelis 2017 750ml
Aglianico del Tabruno Fidelis 2017
The 2017 Aglianico Fidelis took me by surprise. I usually only like dry, tannic Aglianicos from Mastroberardino, for example, but I had this bottle before my... tasting on Wed. We opened it the night before with some pizza and the two of us drank the whole bottle without even realizing it. The secret of this wine? There a 10% blend of Sangiovese and Merlot that helps keep the racy and super structured Aglianico grape in check; I was floored. This simple wine drank seamlessly, was balanced, was fruit forward enough to caress the palate but not overly so. The supple, opulent quality is met with elevated acidity thanks to the vineyard altitudes ranging from 650ft to 2000ft. At $18 per bottle you get all this?? Yes please.

About Cantina del Taburno
Cantina del Taburno is located in Campania, on the slopes of Monte Taburno which overlooks the town of Benevento just 15 miles away. This area is all... about the wonderful indigenous grapes of Campania like Falanghina, Fiano, Aglianico and Piedirosso. The rich soils, the incredibly balanced weather this region enjoys regularly and, of course, the particular microclimate the slopes and nearby mountains create make for some incredibly delicious wines. The winery at Cantina del Taburno was founded in 1972, but the vineyards had long been a part of what was called the “Consorzio Agrario di Benevento” (Agrarian Consortium of Benevento) which was established in 1901. At the time, these Consortiums were vital for the survival of Italian grape growers as the most of them were too poor to grow grapes, make and bottle wine AND do sales. It was a group effort that was common in all of Italy and ensured all could benefit. While most producers in northern and central Italy managed to become independent quickly, the south has been making their mark only now in the last 15-20 years and they are coming up strong. Today the estate boasts 600 hectares of land and covers all corners of the Sannio wine making region around Benevento.

Luigi Maffini Aglianico Kleos Rosso Paestum IGT 2017 750ml
Luigi Maffini Kleos Rosso Paestum IGT 2017
This glorious mono-varietal Aglianico has it all: a flawless pedigree, a bewitching bouquet, drink-me-now accessibility, and the... stuffing to age for years. Fistfuls of succulent black and red fruits blend with peppery spices, fragrant flower petals, crushed stones, and cedar, while the palate studs the tongue with fine-grained tannins and fills the mouth with plush texture. No doubt, this wine is an absolute knockout!
