You don’t often see Aglianico coming from outside Italy—and I was surprised to find an Aglianico from the Guadalupe Valley (Valle de Guadalupe) Mexico. This wine is an homage to it’s brethren across the Atlantic. This wine well balanced; slightly vitreous—lighter ruby red, vivid acid structure and notes of fresh red plum, clove and cinnamon, vanilla and scent of red flowers.
¡Salud!
