The colour is brilliant and dense, immediately suggesting concentration and character. On the nose, it reveals an intense and complex bouquet, with notes of rhubarb, earthy undertones, subtle ash, and a marked mineral edge. The palate is warm and structured, with vibrant tannins that reflect its youthful nature. Full-bodied and persistent, this wine leaves a lasting impression of depth and vitality.

Producer: Cantine Lonardo

Varietals: Aglianico

Vinification/Ageing: Alcoholic fermentation is initiated with selected indigenous yeasts from the vineyard and carried out at a controlled temperature of 27–28°C for approximately 15 days. Skin maceration varies between 15 and 60 days, depending on the tank. Following racking, the wine is transferred to oak barrels of 5 and 15 hectolitres for aging. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation occurs over about 13 days. The wine matures for a total of 30 months, including at least 24 months in wood. Final blending takes place in stainless steel before bottling in July, without filtration.

Alcohol: 14%
