You get great value for this dark and brooding red wine. The 2010 Taurasi Fatica Contadina is a full and generous expression of Aglianico with black fruit tones of plum and blackberry confit. That fruity core rests on background tones of spice, dark cinnamon, tar and smoke. The mouthfeel is long, polished and, perhaps, a touch softer compared to your classic Taurasi.

Chewy tannins lend firmness to this medium- to full-bodied red, with fresh, finely knit acidity, smoky minerality and layers of dried cherry, salumi, ground white pepper and fennel seed flavors. The tannins reemerge on the lasting, fragrant finish. Drink now through 2022. 2,166 cases made.??–AN??Region: Italy / South / Taurasi Select to Add
