Territory and wine style

Taurasi is one of the most authoritative denominations in Irpinia and best represents the noblest side of Aglianico. In this interpretation by Joaquin, the connection to the territory is central: the grapes come from a historic vineyard in Paternopoli, from very old plants, an element that contributes to giving concentration, depth, and finesse. The style is that of a structured red, austere yet elegant, built to accompany time and to offer a complex and harmonious reading of the grape variety and the area of origin.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense and luminous garnet red, enriched by orange reflections. On the nose, a broad and refined profile emerges, with very ripe red fruits, raspberry jam, candied red oranges, Mediterranean herbs, tobacco, sweet spices, and hints of coffee, dark chocolate, and balsamic notes. The sip is imposing and enveloping, with significant body, well-present freshness, and elegant, perfectly integrated tannins. The finish is long, persistent, and marked by notes of licorice, cinchona, and spices.
