Reviews and Ratings

L.J. Palmer WSET 3 rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

From Grandi Marchi Sept 2019 Ottawa: Medium ruby wine, dry and full bodied. The aroma features delightful red cherry and rose petal pot pourri with a distinct earthy note. The wine has plush tannins and a complex palate featuring rose petal and red cherry. This wine is especially appealing because of the intermingling of floral notes and fruit; this helps bring alive the region it comes from.
Lori Kilmartin WSET3 - WSET3 Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

An expressive 100% Aglianico from Campania, the grapes from this wine are grown in two vineyards 400-700 meters above sea level.

13.5% alcohol and with lots of backbone - this is a vintage that can and will age well.
Aromas of blackberry, plum and spice. Full bodied and well balanced fruit, acidity and tannins. If you're looking to expand your palate this would be a great wine to try.

I'm a lover of truffle cheese and see this as a great pairing. It would also go well with roasted meats or game.

Tasted September 17/2019 Grand Marchi
