Taurasi DOCG - Company: Il Cortiglio

A red wine for special occasions, an expression of long-lived wines.

Produced exclusively with grapes from our vineyard in Contrada Fosso Cavallo in Fontanarosa, Taurasi DOCG del Cortiglio is a red wine that can be drunk young but also left to age for many years. The color is intense ruby ​​red with garnet nuances that tend towards orange reflections. The nose is characteristic with a pleasant and unmistakable fruitiness. When tasted it is harmonious and balanced, with a dry and velvety flavor. Decidedly tannic in the less aged bottles. It is an ideal wine for a big occasion, to surprise your guests and to give a gift to a friend or to yourself!
