A small production of 2600 bottles, this Aglianico rosé from a vineyard some 20 years old is the classic wine to be forgotten in the cellar. Despite the short maceration and ageing in steel to preserve its finer, more aromatic character, the terroir creates a wine with muscle, crystalline tannin and first-class acidity.

Its capacity for ageing, which can be guessed from its granite structure, brings to mind some legendary labels from French lands. Savoury, deep, brilliant.

From the producer

Luigi Tecce

We are in Paternopoli in the heart of the deepest Irpinia, here the Luigi Tecce winery produces some of the most astonishing taurasi around. Pure Aglianico and wines that are a unique compendium of finesse, power, balance and concentration.

Luigi is a man of many interests, passionate about art history and horse riding, he joined the company taking the heights in 1997 after the death of his father. He represents the fourth generation of winemakers to take care of the company and immediately made some important choices: the first was to abandon chemistry in agriculture to follow a cleaner, more natural path. The second was the choice to bottle the wines produced, having realised that they had an incredible heritage on their hands.

Today the company owns 5 hectares of vines, all divided into small plots with very old plants, some of which are even centuries old, at an altitude of between 500 and 600 metres.
