  Another Vulture Aglianico punching well above its price point. A delicious midweek wine that could likely rival many $60 examples from Tuscany or Piedmont.
  
  Nose shows a powerful fruit-forward demeanor, tempered by enough of a rustic edge to maintain its identity. Aromas of maraschino cherry, ripe red plum, brown sugar, mocha, olive, violets, garrigue, worn leather, and a pleasant note of wet hay.
  
  Mouthfeel is framed by moderate acidity and powerful, woody tannins, yet seems to be somewhat lacking in mid-palate weight. Just slightly disjointed, but pleasing with rich foods.
  
  Aglianico once again provides great value for those seeking out grounded, approachable and tannic Italian reds.
