Colli di Lapio Irpinia ‘Donna Chiara’ 2008
$51.95
Producer: Colli di Lapio Here we see just how good the fascinating Fiano can get. Some think this version by Clelia Romano, from a series of small vineyards in the Avellino Hills, is the best, always receiving, for example, Tre Bicchieri. Hers are certainly leaders of this, and Campania‘s other main variety, Aglianico The altitude of these 500 metre vineyards close to Avellino leads to a fine and racy version of the noble Aglianico. This is quite rich and earthy, with its characteristic redcurrant fruits and peppery spices, over a notable structure and long savoury finish. |
