LAPILLI AGLIANICO BENEVENTANO 2021 14%

Description

Lapilli wines come from the Avellino Province of Campagnia of Southern Italy. The volcanic layers of soil help to create stunning mineral-driven and memorable wines. The indigenous varietals here have had thousands of years of adaption, finding balance in volcanic soils, high altitudes and cooling Mediterranean breezes.

Beneventano IGT is an appellation in Campania, where the red variety Aglianico dominates. Here, high altitudes help moderate the Mediterranean climate and allow the late-ripening Aglianico variety to mature on the vine well into November. Combined with the volcanic soils of the region, this native variety produces an age-worthy wine with complex flavors that develop over time. Often called “Barolo of the South,” this moniker speaks to the variety’s ability to express finesse and pedigree as one of Italy’s great red varieties when grown here.
