Note di degustazione
The 2006 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo takes the wine to an even bigger scale, if possible, in terms of color, density and concentration. This was a warm vintage on the Vulture volcano with harvest times that started earlier than average the third week of October. The bouquet is absolutely seamless with interconnected tones of dried cherry, chocolate, spice, volcanic smoke, flint and grilled herb that form a long and compelling aromatic continuum. It's as if Titolo was taken up a notch in intensity in 2006. In the mouth, the wine shows softness and a rich textural fabric that blankets the palate from start to finish. It is drinking beautifully right now. The wine shows both elegance and power.

The 2006 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo is a dark, brooding wine loaded with violets, blackberry jam, new leather, earthiness, cured meats. The wine possesses staggering richness and opulence, along with considerable varietal character and tons of harmony. The full-throttle style may not be for everyone, but this wine delivers the goods and then some. Readers looking to explore the heights of Aglianico as grown on the high-altitude, volcanic soils of the Vulture owe it to themselves to check out this reference-point wine. Another year or two in bottle will help the wine come together even more fully, but the 2006 Titolo is a great bottle even at this early stage.
