Di Majo Norante Sassius Molise Aglianico Riserva 2017

An Aglianico Riserva from Molise, produced by Di Majo Norante under the name Sassius. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in contact with the skins for one month, followed by two years in barrique and six months of bottle ageing. It is a monovarietal Aglianico. It pairs well with red meats, game and aged cheeses. Intense garnet red. The nose is rich and complex, with ripe red fruit and spicy notes, followed by ethereal nuances. On the palate it is full and bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a long finish.
