“Terra d’Eclano” Aglianico Irpinia DOC 2020

Quintodecimo | Campania
Quintodecimo s.a. srl. | Via San Leonardo 27 | IT 83036 Mirabella Eclano

The dark and seductive bouquet opens with blackberry jam, blueberries and peppery floral tones, which are found on the palate together with salty notes and a fine tannin. Its enormously silky texture and well-dosed concentration of black fruits are accompanied by a remarkable freshness that builds and builds until the endlessly long final. This lively and at the same time incredibly elegant red wine delights on the finish with minty herbs and flowers that could not be more seductive. With increasing years of ageing in the bottle, you can look forward to a few more positive surprises! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Aglianico Terra d'Eclano is a model of class, with a gorgeous bouquet of violets, lavender, dried blueberries and incense. Its silky texture soothes as the polished red and black fruits flow over a core of vibrant acidity. Rosy, floral notes are surrounded by soft tannins. Black tea, tart wild berries and citrus notes slowly fade away. The 2020 is a remarkably beautiful and complex interpretation of Terra d'Eclano." Vinous

"Aromas of blackberries and blueberries against a background of floral and vegetal notes that add complexity and interest to the wine. Medium-bodied with an almost tart plum flavour. The palate is taut and the tannins are fine but powerful, drying out the finish for the moment. Give it some time and try it from 2024." James Suckling

"Made with a special selection of fruit from across five vineyard sites with different soil profiles, the Quintodecimo 2020 Irpinia Aglianico Terra d'Eclano is the most approachable of these reds with ripe primary fruit and softness. Fruit in 2020 shows abundant ripeness, texture and richness with baked blackberry, cherry liqueur, caramel, toasted spice and campfire ember. This wine is underlined by power and ripeness."
