Aglianico del Vulture D.O.C.
Aglianico del Vulture D.O.C. Le Clivie finds its natural habitat on the slopes of Mount Vulture, in Basilicata. This ancient volcano, which has been extinct for thousands of years, is covered by calcareous-clayey soil rich in mineral salts, which are essential for the excellent development of the vines.
It is in this particular context, in the heart of Lucania, a land of castles, fortresses and abbeys, that Aglianico del Vulture
D.O.C. Le Clivie originates.
Velvety red, structured and harmonious, Aglianico del Vulture D.O.C. Le Clivie is a bold, important wine that expresses its identity with increasing emphasis as it ages.
Colour Ruby red
Bouquet Intense and harmonious, with pleasant scents of strawberry, raspberry and spices
Palate Warm, smooth, mineral and tannic
Pairing Ideal with roast and grilled meats, it pairs perfectly with traditional dishes from the Basilicata region, such as strozzapreti with ragout, pork sausage, crispy peppers (peperone crusco), red aubergines and white beans (Fagioli Bianchi di Rotonda D.O.P.). Interesting in combination with international recipes such as chili-con-carne or moussaka.
