Taurasi DOCG “Macchia dei Goti”: why we love it
Made from 100% Aglianico grapes, this wine originates from the historic Macchia dei Goti district in Taurasi, a unique terroir distinguished by its altitude and soil composition. The vineyards, located at 350 metres above sea level, thrive in clay-limestone soils, ensuring grapes of exceptional aromatic concentration.
Vinification follows traditional methods, with a long maceration on the skins to extract maximum structure and elegance. The wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barriques, followed by a further 12 months in the bottle, developing a unique aromatic depth. A powerful yet refined Taurasi DOCG, it showcases the best of its terroir and promises an extraordinary tasting experience both now and after 10–15 years of ageing.
Perfect for pairing with substantial main courses, the Taurasi DOCG “Macchia dei Goti” pairs beautifully with braised dishes, game, wild meats, and grilled red meats. It is also an excellent match for aged cheeses and richly structured dishes from traditional cuisine.
To fully appreciate its nuances, it is recommended to open the bottle at least an hour before tasting and serve it at a temperature of 18–20°C.

Livio Carilio –
Il Macchia dei Goti Caggiano é un ottimo Taurasi che si esprime con note concentrate e intense al naso. Ha una buona carica tannica, in bocca rivela note di confettura di fragola, mora, cuoio, spezie. Ottimo con carne rossa. Un Aglianico convincente, che giustifica i riconoscimenti ricevuti negli anni dalla critica.
