Campanica | Monitoring Italy's Campania region around Naples

A WINE THAT TENDS TO BE VERY RICH IN ACIDITY AND TANNIN Guastaferro’s work with Aglianico has really driven the estate ascent. Even though the estate itself is fairly young, its pre-existing Aglianico vines are not. Most of them are between 100 and 150 years old and are un-grafted (i.e. pre Phylloxera), planted on clay and calcareous soils with volcanic elements. The resulting grapes are ultra concentrated and produce very powerful and ripe wines but at the same time with precision and balance. 2017 Guastaferro “Memini” Aglianico, Irpinia | Musings on the Vine
