Structured, complex and boasting serious aging potential, Taurasi is southern Italy’s answer to Piedmont’s Barolo and Tuscany’s Brunello di Montalcino.

From the Campania region, Taurasi is made with native grape Aglianico, one of the country’s greatest varieties, along with Nebbiolo and Sangiovese. Aglianico is planted across a few regions in the south, but its spiritual home is in Campania’s Avellino province, a hilly inland area known historically as Irpinia.

Centered around the town of Taurasi, Avellino’s conditions help Aglianico excel. The variety yields wines with vibrant acidity and firm tannins, which ultimately result in ageworthy structures.

The tasting profile of this Southern Oregon Cabernet Sauvignon is high acidity, high tannins and full body with black fruit notes of black cherry, vegetal notes of green pepper, and spice notes of vanilla from oak aging.

The nose of this lives up to its Italian name — the little sweet one — with hints of raspberries and sweet cherries amid toasted coconut and coffee. The palate is racy with cranberries, pie cherries and pomegranate as the acidity stays far ahead of the tannin structure.
