The 2012 Aglianico del Vulture offers a fundamentally pleasing and enriching experience with a beautiful bouquet that is stitched tight with threads of spice, dark fruit, dark mineral and cola. There is no doubting the volcanic nature of this dark, masculine and brooding wine. The 2012 vintage seems especially voluptuous and shapely. In the mouth, the wine shows a superior sense of precision and sharpness that is shaped by the tannins and the natural acidity of Aglianico. D'Angelo has taken huge strides forward in quality.

The black cherry and fresh earth flavors are sweet and focused in this harmonious, medium-bodied red, accented by black olive, fig bread and dried herb notes, all framed by fine-grained tannins that firm up the finish.
