The Aglianico “Franco” embodies the richness of Basilicata’s volcanic terroir, revealing complex aromas of ripe black fruits and spicy notes.
On the palate, its elegant tannic structure is perfectly balanced by a bright acidity and a minerality typical of the region’s soils. The finish is long and persistent, with hints of licorice and earth. A wine of great character, ideal for pairing with rich dishes such as roasted meats, aged cheeses, or sauced dishes.
