Aglianico del Vulture (Gabriella) – Red Wine
This D.O.C. wine is the result of a fine union between 70% of a wine aged in barriques and 30% in Slavonia oak barrels. The wine has a good structure, young, elegant and well balanced. The color is ruby red with purple nuances. The bouquet is harmonious and distinct with undertones of dark berries. The taste is full and warm, pleasantly velvety and tannic.
