"Deep ruby-red. The pungent, wild nose offers myriad scents, including leather, tobacco, black pepper, nutmeg, blueberry, coffee liqueur and black truffle. Strongly mineral on the palate (the vineyards are not far from the extinct Roccamonfina volcano), where tobacco and leather come through again (due in part to the small percentage of piedirosso in this mainly aglianico blend), along with wonderfully pure red cherry, blackberry liqueur, cedar, flint and black truffle. . ."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
