I ordered a glass of this ($9.00) at Vivace Restaurant, Raleigh while dining on the patio. Viscous. Dark crimson color with limited transparency. Attractive nose of violets and dark fruits, mainly cherries, perhaps some plums. (A sales note on the 2005 vintage mentions fig, plum jam, spice and leather on the nose but no mention of violets or other flower scents.) Cherries and plums on the palate. Very appealing.
A glass of Barbera might have paired better with the delicious Bologna Rigatoni with goat cheese crema, but I really enjoyed the Aglianico and will look for some to purchase in the future. Suggested pairings anyone?
