As the sun sinks over the volcanic hills of Taurasi, the spirit of Antico Borgo Campi Taurasini 2018 comes alive. This is no ordinary wine; it is Aglianico— the noble grape of southern Italy, cherished by Empress Livia, wife of Augustus, who championed its spread across Rome’s southern provinces. Yet, Taurasi remains its true home, a place where tradition and resilience are etched into the soil itself.
Hand-harvested from vineyards rich in volcanic ash, each grape is selected with the care that only centuries of winemaking can inspire. The journey from vineyard to glass is a labor of love and respect: first aged in French barrique to lend elegance, then in American oak casks to build depth. For two years, it takes on layers of spice and smoke, followed by another two years resting in glass, honing its character.
In each sip, there is a balance of power and grace. Notes of dark cherry and violet lead to a rich minerality, whispers of tobacco, spice, and smoke. Antico Borgo Campi Taurasini 2018 is a tribute to endurance, a link to a storied past. Strength and honor. In every glass.
