Tasting Notes: Taurasi Riserva Vigna Quintodecimo has a fine balance of small fruits, floral notes and exotic spices. Seductive and ripe, the wine has an aromatic intensity complemented by savory tannins that are fine as pure silk and tremendous energy from start to finish. It is a wine of extraordinary richness and elegance that reaches its peak within the first twenty years and still retains its character for many years after. Vigna Quintodecimo is a cru from two hectars of Aglianico, obtained from the same vineyard, planted in 2001 on the north-west side of the estate. The soil is made up of expandable clay rocks very rich in limestone. The vineyard, situated at 420 metres of altitude with a slope of 25%, is cultivated with a cordon spur training system and has a density of 5.000 plants per hectar.
