Description
Bue Apis 2013 Aglianico DOCG Cantine del Taburno
Bue Apis 2013 Aglianico DOCG by Cantine del Taburno is a Campanian red wine with a strong identity, made purely from Aglianico grapes from a century-old vineyard. The wine’s structure authentically enhances a historic grape variety from the Taburno area, with a bold yet harmonious style, designed to express depth, complexity, and evolutionary potential.
Territory and wine style
Production takes place in the D.O.C. Taburno area, on hilly land facing southeast at about 350 meters above sea level. The clayey limestone marls contribute to giving the wine structure and finesse, while the manual harvest in the first decade of November allows for the collection of fully ripe grapes. The long maceration and aging in new oak and chestnut barrels define a style that is rich, deep, and of great personality.
