Corleto 2024 Paestum Aglianico BIO: elegance and freshness from Cilento

Corleto 2024 Paestum Aglianico BIO without added sulfites from San Salvatore Azienda Agricola is a red wine with an authentic character, built on balance, finesse, and drinkability. Born from pure Aglianico and interpreted in an organic key, it offers a modern profile while remaining true to the territory, with intense fruit, silky tannins, and a freshness that accompanies each sip naturally.

Territory and wine style

This wine expresses the soul of the Paestum territory and Cilento, with grapes coming from vineyards located at 550 meters above sea level on clay-limestone soils rich in skeleton. The southwest exposure and manual harvesting contribute to balanced ripening, while the production approach aims to enhance the noblest part of the grape. Fermentation in steel and aging predominantly in steel tanks, with a small portion in first-pass French oak barrels, define a clean, precise, and harmonious style.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a ruby color enriched with purplish reflections. On the nose, it offers an articulated and inviting bouquet, with notes of dark berries, cherry, mulberries, and floral nuances of the field, accompanied by hints of vanilla, pine, and cinnamon. On the palate, it is enveloping, soft, and gentle, yet supported by a well-perceived freshness and silky tannins that make the sip smooth. The structure is balanced, with good persistence and a harmonious finish that enhances the fruit.

Recommended pairings

Corleto 2024 Paestum Aglianico BIO pairs easily with cured meats, flavorful white meats, roasted poultry, delicate ragù, and first courses with meat sauces.

It is a versatile red wine, capable of tastefully accompanying both an informal dinner and a more refined table.
