Irpinia's volcanic slopes yield this medium-bodied Aglianico with mineral precision and structured tannin.
Danimi's Meravia sources Aglianico from Irpinia, the southeastern subregion of Campania where volcanic soils and high elevation (400–700m) create the conditions for this varietal's signature tension between ripe dark fruit and mineral grip. The wine undergoes
temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel, preserving the aromatic clarity that distinguishes Irpinia expressions from their heavier Taurasi cousins.
Post-fermentation aging in neutral oak or concrete (exact vessel type unconfirmed) allows the wine's natural structure to emerge without oak overlay. Aglianico's reputation rests on its ability to age, and this bottling demonstrates the varietal's characteristic medium-full tannin and medium acidity—enough grip to demand food, enough freshness to avoid heaviness.
The volcanic terroir imparts a distinctive mineral undertone that separates serious Irpinia from softer southern Italian reds. Drink 2024–2032.
Sommelier’s pick: Roasted lamb with rosemary—mineral notes echo the herb, tannin frames the meat · Aged Pecorino Romano—the wine's grip complements salty, hard cheese
