It has a generous and helpful character, and proposing a nice territorial cross-section, comes to be kind but determined at the same time. This is how we could sum up the Aglianico "RediMore" produced by the "Mastroberardino" winery. Left to mature for a year in barrique and aged six months in bottle, it is an Aglianico d'Irpinia that offers us guarantees under allpoints of view without ever asking for anything in return. When meat preparations are on the table, it is an Aglianico that becomes a must.
Tasting Notes: Intense ruby red is the color to the eye. Small red fruits such as raspberry and strawberry open the entrance to the nose, then also characterized by spicy references and hints of cocoa and coffee. Enveloping tannic texture, warm and consistent sip, long persistence.
Pairings: Also excellent with the whole meal when meat dishes are on the table, it is to be chosen together with baked pasta with meatballs.

History | The twinning of Aglianico grape selections from the Montemarano and Mirabella Eclano estates yields Radici Taurasi, the emblematic label of Mastroberardino's signature classic viticulture. Montemarano represents a historic site in the production of Taurasi, located in the southernmost part of the area in DOCG. Here the pronounced temperature swings and slower ripening determine the conditions for a late harvest, usually in November, offering grapes richer in noble tannins and acidity, such as to enhance the longevity characters. Mirabella Eclano is the epicenter of production, research and experimentation on Aglianico, which is the main grape variety grown in Mirabella. |
