Vesevo Beneventano Aglianico 2021/22
Country/Region of Origin: Italy

Region: Italy, Benevento

Grape variety: Aglianico 

Tasting notes: Deep red with violet reflections. Complex and intense, red fruit with clear notes of spice and vanilla. Slightly tannic, tannins are firm and smooth, clean and dry on the finish. A dark, brooding wine with rich aromas of chocolate, mocha and ripe black cherries. The intense, savoury palate balances the weighty fruit with the ripe, supple tannins beautifully and finishes on a long, smoky, chocolate note.

Food pairing: Slow-cooked rack of lamb, pork ragout, roasts, and filet mignon.
