Taurasi Vigna Macchia dei Goti 2019, Antonio Caggiano
A monumental red for charisma, power, and stylistic rigor. The olfactory profile alternates noble black fruits with volcanic mineral and spicy 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 verticality of the sip. A stylistic achievement that represents the pinnacle of Campanian winemaking.
Taurasi Vigna Macchia dei Goti 2019, Antonio Caggiano
The Taurasi "Vigna Macchia dei Goti" 2019 by Antonio Caggiano is a monumental work, the label that redefined the modern elegance of Aglianico. Born from the family’s symbolic vineyard, located in the municipality of Taurasi on clay-limestone soils, this wine represents the perfect balance between the ancestral power of the grape and a sumptuous aromatic clarity. 2019 was an extraordinary vintage in Irpinia, characterized by long ripening times that brought out a masterful phenolic complexity. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of sour cherry, black plum, and licorice blend with deep hints of sweet spices, noble vanilla, dark tobacco, and a mineral streak reminiscent of graphite and volcanic earth. On the palate, it is powerful, architectural, and sumptuous; the entry is broad, dominated by noble, sculpted tannins, with an aristocratic balsamic freshness that extends the sip toward a savory, infinite, and vibrant finish.
