| IL PRINCIPIO AGLIANICO 2017 DOC Irpinia |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
TERRE DORA DI PAOLO |
| NEW in Vintages. This 100% Aglianico has a fairly deep garnet-red colour. Attractive, intense, somewhat rustic, faintly earthy, date-tinged, dried ripe plum fruit with some floral, violet-tinged, dried rose notes. Very dry, medium-full bodied, well structured, fairly dense, baked Damson plum fruit flavours with a lingering, slightly savoury, gently grippy, iron-mineral-tinged, woodsy, bright, roasted chestnut finish. Lots of texture and perfect for wild game and robust stews, this tasty 2017 has 13% alcohol and under 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L22053 on the capsule. |

| TASTING NOTE: This is showing aromas of dried flowers, roasted strawberries, spice box and mushrooms. Fullbodied, chewy and savory, with smoky undertones and firm tannins. Well-structured, if still a little woody. Drink from 2024. Score - 91 (jamessuckling.com, Nov. 7, 2023) |
