(10/20/2017) "I love the polish and complexity to this red. It delivers subtle currant, dried herb and spice character as well as a full body that is tight and focused. Such polished tannins. It goes on for minutes. One of the best vintages in years!"

(12/7/2018) "The 2015 Terra di Lavoro is a blend of 80% Aglianico and 20% Piedirosso, although you most certainly get herbaceous or pyrazine-driven aromas of green spice and bitter coffee that recall the Cabernet family. Beyond those more pointedly aromatic components, the bouquet offers spice, sweet tobacco, blackberry fruit and dried cherry. The vines are now aged from 16 to 26 years old, and they are located at 450 meters above sea level in the volcanic soils of the extinct Roccamonfina volcano. This was a hot vintage that offers exuberant and opulent fruit, followed by structure and soft tannins. Some 30,000 bottles were produced. Drink 2019 - 2035."

Bellaria "Rafe" Campania Aglianico 2012

Our Score
(5/2018) This hearty red from Campania is made from the Aglianico grape. Smoke and dark berry flavors are complemented by hints of cherry, vanilla and spice. Finishes with good balance and lasting acidity. This is drinking perfectly right now and will continue to do so for at least a few years to come.

(7/28/2018) "The 2017 Fiano d'Avellino Romana Clelia is a medium-textured white wine with warm-vintage aromas of apricot, honey and sweet almond. There is a delicate side of the bouquet that is expressed with crushed stone, white flowers and lime. This wine shines with a bright and glossy quality. Winemaking is very simple, with fermentation in stainless steel and some brief bottle aging before the wine goes to market. Bottle production is 48,000 units strong."

Mastroberadino "Redimore" Campania Aglianico 2014
New low price! Regular Vin Chicago retail - $19.99!

Our Score
(3/2018) Mastroberadino is one of the absolute pioneers of the region, they've only produced this very convincing case for a softer-style of Aglianico since 2008. Commonly considered one of the three most noble red grapes of mainland Italy, Aglianico is frequently firm - requiring age to soften in regal wines like Taurasi. Here the 'Redimore' (King of blackberries) lives up to a touch of its namesake, but is full of ashy, smoky red-berry fruit as well in this lighter vintage. Food-flexible and fun, just how we like 'em.

(9/2018) "Bright straw yellow. Menthol, ripe apple, botanical herbs and flowers on the inviting nose. Rich and dense with a multi-layered quality. Finishes long, surprisingly tactile, complex and mouth-filling. Best Falanghina wine from Terredora in years, or at least that I have memory of. Drinking window: 2018 - 2020."

(11/2016) "Bright lemon-yellow. Very ripe aromas of peach, tropical fruit and toasty croissant. In a surprisingly fat, glyceral style for a Lacryma Christi Bianco, but harmonious acidity nicely frames the creamy middle. Finishes classically dry with a lightly saline edge and average length. A blend of 60 percent Falanghina and 40 percent Coda di Volpe."
