Southern Italy’s best red grape, Aglianico, is typically made in a tannic, muscular style, intended for extended bottle ageing. Born in the landlocked region of Beneventano, the Picco del Sole is an oddity in that it's fresh and bright with not a hint of the grip and tannin found typically in this local variety. Instead you’ll find full ripe fruit, a dash of earth and spice, and a gentle, easy-going, finish. A perfect wine to keep on hand for any cookout.
