| Carraia Aglianico 2013 |
Variety: Aglianico
Country: Italy
Region: Campagna
Year: 2013
Price: $15
Shop Review: Produced in the Campania region of Italy, this Aglianico has delicious black fruit flavors with hints of licorice, volcanic soil and tar notes. Classic in nature, yet in a lighter, more crowd pleasing style, the Carraia is made of the ancient Agli
anico grape. This black grape originated in Greece and today is widely grown in Basilicata and Campania.

My Review: This wine smells like a cherry and strawberry scratch and sniff sticker. It reminds me of an old house carpet in my grandma's house. It has that kind of dewy or moldy feel with a hint (?) of cranberry. The taste was similar to a caramelized soufflé that was little toasted. Pretty neat wine.
Food: I did not taste this with food.
