Introduction:
The 2022 Cantine del Notaio "L'Atto" Aglianico Basilicata IGT is a vibrant red wine from the Basilicata region in Italy. Crafted from 100% Aglianico grapes, this wine offers a harmonious blend of ripe fruit flavors, floral notes, and balanced tannins, making it an excellent choice for various occasions.
Terrior:
The vineyards are situated on the volcanic slopes of Mount Vulture in Basilicata, benefiting from mineral-rich soils and a Mediterranean climate. These conditions contribute to the development of complex flavors and the distinctive character of the Aglianico grape.
Tasting notes:
The L'Atto's dark color is a harbinger of what is to come: aromas of black cherries, plums, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries accompanied by violets and hints of carob. The palate is rich and well-structured, with brooding black fruits - black cherries, plums, and blueberries - laced with accents of flinty, wet stone on a frame of sturdy tannins and bright acidity that take it to a long finish.
