Stilèma Taurasi DOCG 2015
An austere and complex wine, excellent drinkability and great aging potential. A modern interpretation of the style of the great Taurasi of the 1950s and 1960s. Stilèma Taurasi is the result of a work of composition and conjunction of different yet synergistic micro-territorial stories, which create a unique and complex expressive force. Pietradefusi, Montemarano, Paternopoli and Mirabella Eclano are the different family sites from which the grapes come, different in altitude, microclimate and soils.
