Irpinia Aglianico DOC by Antico Borgo: why we like it
This Irpinia Aglianico DOC from Antico Borgo is a wine that best represents the winemaking tradition of Irpinia, made from pure Aglianico grapes grown in the hills of Irpinia on clay-limestone soils. Harvesting is done manually in the third week of October, with careful selection of the bunches to ensure maximum quality.
Vinification follows a careful process that respects the fruit, with maceration on the skins and fermentation at a controlled temperature to extract the maximum aromatic and structural components. Soft pressing allows the wine’s finesse to be preserved, while subsequent aging in oak barrels for six months gives greater balance and roundness to the tannins, without covering the vine’s lively expressiveness.
A versatile and harmonious wine, ideal for accompanying robust soups, meat dishes, roasts and aged cheeses. Because of its freshness and balanced structure, it is perfect for both immediate consumption and brief bottle aging.
It is recommended to serve at 18-20°C, opening the bottle at least half an hour before tasting to enhance its aromatic complexity.
