Aglianico, Texas High Plains, 2023

Texas High Plains, 2023

This structured and expressive Aglianico reflects the bold character and sun-driven intensity of the Texas High Plains. Aromas of black cherry, plum, and dried cranberry rise from the glass, layered with notes of violet, crushed herbs, leather, and a touch of smoky earth. 

On the palate, dark red fruit is framed by firm, grippy tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering flavors of sour cherry, blackberry, and pomegranate with hints of clove, tobacco, and savory spice. Medium-plus to full-bodied, the wine shows both power and precision, finishing long and structured with lingering notes of dried fruit, earth, and mineral.
