"The 2022 Aglianico del Vulture Grifalco opens in the glass with a wild bouquet that blends crushed blackberries with spice, blood orange and cooling hints of mint. This is soft-textured and supple, with a core of mineral-inflected red and black fruits offset by a twang of sour citrus and sage. A bump of residual acidity maintains marvelous freshness as the 2022 tapers off long and structured. Sweet tannins reverberate as a note of licorice sticks around. This zesty and animated Aglianico is a total pleasure to taste, and it’s also a fantastic value." -Eric Guido

"A harmonious red, with fluid grace and fine integration, this layers sinewy tannins with flavors of black cherry coulis and mulberry, plus accents of dried lavender and rosemary, graphite and ash. Long and creamy on the lingering, spiced finish. Drink now through 2035."
