Grape Varieties

100% Aglianico

Food Matching Note:

Best suited to food matching and ideal with rare red meats such as beef, lamb, boar or duck. Perfect with rich sauces (mushroom or fruit based) and delicious with full flavoured hard cheese such as Pecorino.

Tasting Note:

Serpico has an intense ruby red colour and a complex, lingering bouquet of cherry preserve, sweet spices, liquorice, coffee and cocoa. The palate shows considerable concentration of ripe fruits, spices, nuts and chocolate with a well integrated, fine grained tannic structure and a dash of minerality. Finishes complex, satisfying and lengthy.

Vinification Note:

Made from 100% Aglianico, partly from century old vines grown within the Taurasi DOCG area on rich humus and sandy soils with deep mineral and clay beds. Hand harvested in late October, the whole bunches are de-stemmed and crushed into stainless steel where the juice ferments at 26°C with 12 days of skin maceration. After malo-lactic fermentation, the wine is aged for 18 months in new French barriques with a medium toast.
