A vintage full of character and charm: concentrated, rich and balanced, with an intense ruby color. Elegant and soft tannic structure, concentrated and aromatic of herbs and spices. Rich fruit reminiscent of cherry and sour cherry, with aromatic persistence and a finish reminiscent of tobacco, supported by an acidic note that gives an impressive freshness. Limited edition of only 400 bottles. - Gerardo [TS01/20]
"The 2018 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo Superiore pulls me deep into the glass to take in its beguiling bouquet, as balsamic spice, incense and crushed ashen rocks evolve into a mix of blackberries, sage and hints of animal musk. Cool-toned and finessed, this impresses with its savory, nearly salty character and perfumed black fruit profile, as brisk acids maintain a lovely freshness. A twang of sour citrus adds a bump of nervous energy toward the close, as the 2018 finishes with a web of silty tannins and hints of black currant that linger on. The Superiore is a selection that's refined for 12 months in tonneaux, followed by 12 months in used barrels and, finally 12 months in the bottle. It's aromatically stunning, with added textural depth and an enhanced structure that outhweighs the 2018 Titolo. Following this bottle for three days, I'm highly interested to see how it will mature of the coming years." - Antonio Galloni (Vinous)
