Galardi Terra di Lavoro 2012
A monumental red for technical precision and expressive harmony. The olfactory profile alternates between small black fruits and tertiary and mineral notes of extreme refinement. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the strength of the tannin and the softness of the sip. A stylistic achievement that represents one of the most balanced and complete versions of this Cru.
Galardi Terra di Lavoro 2012
Galardi's 2012 Terra di Lavoro is a vintage of extraordinary harmony, often described as the perfect meeting point between the volcanic power of Roccamonfina and a more approachable drinkability compared to more extreme vintages. In this year, the interaction between Aglianico and Piedirosso reaches peaks of pure poetry. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of black forest fruits, currants, and morello cherry blend with deep hints of volcanic smoke, graphite, sweet tobacco, and a mineral trail reminiscent of scorched earth and licorice. On the palate, it is sumptuous and vibrant; the entry is broad, dominated by dense, noble tannins with surprising silkiness, stretching towards a savory, long finish with endless aromatic persistence, characterized by balsamic and iron notes.
