2007 Wine - Red Villa Matilde

2007 Villa Matilde Taurasi (Campania, Italy)
Wine - Red $47.99 (750mL)

Made by famed winemaker Riccardo Cotarella, this 100% Aglianico from hillside vineyards on rich clay soils offers deep crimson color, rich, complex bouquet with notes of licorice, brushwood, berry fruit and violets. Lush structure, sweet, well balanced tannins, austere yet never aggressive, decided elegance. Pair with game or red meat dishes. Aging longevity of 15 or more years.

Antonio Galloni, The Wine Advocate

Rating: 95

The 2007 Taurasi caresses the palate with freshly cut roses, spices, red berries, mint and licorice. Bright aromas and flavors dazzle the palate while the wilder, more varietal side of Aglianico is less apparent. This is an especially silky, fragrant Taurasi but it all works quite nicely. The 2007 isn't the most varietal Taurasi readers will come across, but it more than makes up for that with a level of pure immediacy and sheer appeal that guarantees it will drink nicely right out of the gate. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2022.
