San Salvatore's Ceraso Aglianico 2021 showcases the captivating allure of this noble Italian grape variety. Grown in the pristine terroir of the Cilento National Park, where time seems to move at a gentler pace, this wine captures the essence of tradition and sustainable viticulture.
Hand-harvested Aglianico grapes undergo a delicate vinification process, including soft pressing, fermentation in stainless steel tanks, and eight months of aging on the lees. This approach allows the wine's natural character to shine, resulting in an elegant, persistent expression of Aglianico.
The Ceraso Aglianico reveals a brilliant ruby red hue with youthful purple glints. Aromas of ripe blackberries and black plums mingle with notes of caramel and rose hips, creating an inviting and complex bouquet. On the palate, the wine is smooth and supple, with playful savory undertones and a backbone of vibrant acidity. Silky tannins and a lingering minerality add further depth and complexity, culminating in a long, satisfying finish.
This is a wine that speaks of its origins, reflecting the unique terroir and meticulous craftsmanship of San Salvatore. Enjoy it now for its youthful exuberance or cellar it for a few years to experience its full potential.
