In Irpinian, the wines exhibit a distinctive personality due to its unique microclimate. The altitude at which the vineyards are found, the soil and the thermal fluctuations develop wines that are intense and elegant and display complex bouquets. Since its establishment in 1978, Terredora di Paolo has focused on rediscovering and restoring Campania’s ancient and native varietals such as Aglianico, Fiano, Greco and Falanghina. These varietals are key players that have brought about Campanian’s wine renaissance.
Aging takes place in 50% stainless and 50% French barrique for 6 months. Red cherry jam, rust, roasted herbs, peppercorn and cocoa beans. Bright and medium-bodied on the mid-palate followed by some fine-grained, vertical tannins before a grippy and savory finish.
