Tasting Notes
The 2018 Aglianico Puro Sangue R18 is hauntingly dark and perfumed, as a smoky blend of flowery underbrush and savory herbs gives way to steeped plums. It’s soft-textured and lifted in feel, showing the finesse of the vintage with brisk acidity and mineral-drenched red fruits that flow throughout. This finishes long yet surprisingly fresh, with a coating of gritty tannins that resonates without hindering the 2018’s lively persona. The Puro Sangue R18 is not to be missed. It shows the mark of the season, yet the hands-off Tecce style has allowed the vintage to speak beautifully through this wine.
