The estate’s 2010 Aglianico del Molise Contado is another wine loaded with personality. Scorched earth, tobacco, incense and smoke are some of the many notes that wrap around a core of intense fruit. Dense, rich and powerful the 2010 should continue to drink well for a number of years. An authoritative finish rounds things out in style in this powerful, striking Aglianico. Di Majo Norante’s Aglianico has to be one of the very best values in Italian wine. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2016. I was totally struck by the wines I tasted from Di Majo Norante this year. This range is packed with a number of fabulous values. A Leonardo Lo Cascio Selection, Winebow, Montvale, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
