Aglianico del Vulture (Tenuta Angela) – Red Wine
The grapes used for this D.O.C.wine grow in a vineyard that is over 25 years old. The wine has a considerable structure; it is elegant and modern with an intense ruby red color. The bouquet is intense with woodsy fragrances, ripe prunes, fruity and spicy. The taste is dry, warm with substantial tannins and a persistent, complex finish.
