AGLIANICO RISERVA 'CONTADO' DI MAJO NORANTE 2019 DESCRIPTION

The Aglianico "Contado" Riserva is a historical wine for Di Majo Norante and Molise. Di Majo Norante produces wines from grapes from their late 1800 and does so with a passion and dedication that has been passed down from hereditary Luigi before and Alessio then. We are in Molise to the north of the Gargano, in the district of Ramitello, on a partly sandy, caressed by a gentle breeze in the summer, it is here that Alex, a man sure of himself and counter, has always tried to sacrifice the approval wine in favor of quality and typicality. A search continues for the recovery of endangered varieties that led Di Majo Norante to produce wines of personality by developing their full potential. The objective of this important reality of Molise is to produce "new wines from old vines" wine can give a typical expression of the terroir and harmonic reference. Aglianico "Contado" Riserva is this: an intense ruby red wine with a hint of orange, it is a wine with a vinous scent that does not leave the ripe fruit wine a soft, velvety, harmonious, balanced and pleasantly tannic. Aglianico "Contado” Riserva Di Majo Norante: the old culture of winemaker combined with the modernity and the future.
