I Pentri Pietra della Volpe 2014
A monumental red for technical precision and expressive tension. The aromatic profile alternates small black fruits with spicy and mineral notes of extreme refinement. On the palate, it is dense yet lively, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the power of Aglianico and the elegance of the sip. A stylish example that celebrates the greatness of Sannio even in cooler vintages.
I Pentri Pietra della Volpe 2014
The 2014 "Pietra della Volpe" from I Pentri is an extraordinary display of character, born from a vintage considered "difficult" but which, in the hands of Dionigi Mezza, has resulted in an Aglianico of moving finesse and verticality. In this vintage, the grape's typical muscularity gives way to a superior acidic and mineral tension, making the sip incredibly dynamic and elegant. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of sour cherry, blackcurrant, and black pepper blend with deep scents of blond tobacco, licorice root, undergrowth, and a mineral trail reminiscent of graphite and wet earth. On the palate, it is sumptuous in its agility; the entry is direct, dominated by dense, noble, and vibrant tannins that stretch towards a savory, endless finish and an interminable aromatic persistence, marked by an aristocratic balsamic freshness.
