Casa Setaro Description
Discover the exceptional Casa Setaro Terramatta Aglianico, an exquisite organic red wine crafted from 100% ungrafted Aglianico grapes grown in the pristine Vesuvius National Park. This unique wine originates from the Tirone della Guardia vineyards, situated at an elevation of 250-350 meters above sea level, and is nurtured in the region's rich volcanic black sand. The meticulous vinification process includes destemming, cryo-maceration, and controlled temperature fermentation, followed by 12 months of aging in stainless steel and a brief passage in used oak. The result is a harmonious balance of freshness and lift, beautifully complementing the Aglianico grape's inherent ruggedness.
Casa Setaro Terramatta Aglianico presents an intense ruby red hue, captivating the senses with a mesmerizing floral aroma intertwined with hints of red fruits, licorice, and smoky undertones. The full-bodied palate delivers a powerful yet elegant experience, with a well-structured profile and slightly velvety tannins. This wine, with its 14% alcoholic volume, is best enjoyed at a serving temperature of 14-16°C.
The versatile Casa Setaro Terramatta Aglianico is a delightful companion to a variety of dishes. Its bold character and savory red fruit flavors make it an ideal pairing for gamey meats, enhancing their rich flavors while adding a touch of finesse. Equally at home alongside a casual pizza night, this wine effortlessly complements hearty red sauce dishes, elevating the dining experience. Whether enjoyed as a chillable red or paired with a delectable meal, Casa Setaro Terramatta Aglianico truly flexes with food, offering a memorable culinary encounter.
