Ageing
The wine matures for 18 months in barriques, followed by at least one year in bottle.
Tasting profile
It has a strong character and structure, with concentrated aromas characteristic of the wines of Irpinia.
Label / history
Naturalis Historia reflects the revival of Campania’s lost heritage that began after World War II. The source places this heritage within a landscape shaped and devastated by Vesuvius and refers to Aglianico’s two-thousand-year history and the abundant vineyards of ancient Taurasia.
