Perillo Taurasi Riserva DOCG 2011

Perillo delivers an exceptional Taurasi Riserva DOCG 2011, representing the pinnacle of Campania's most esteemed wine appellation. Crafted from 100% Aglianico grapes in Italy's prestigious Taurasi region, this Riserva showcases over a decade of careful cellaring and demonstrates why Taurasi is often called the "Barolo of the South."

Tasting Profile

This mature Taurasi reveals complex aromas of dried roses, tobacco leaf, leather, and dark cherries, evolving into tertiary notes of truffle and forest floor. The palate displays remarkable depth with concentrated flavors of blackberry, plum, licorice, and Mediterranean herbs, supported by firm yet integrated tannins and vibrant acidity that provides excellent structure and longevity.

Winemaking Excellence

Traditional vinification includes extended maceration and aging in large Slavonian oak casks for minimum 18 months, followed by additional bottle aging. The careful selection of Aglianico grapes from hillside vineyards ensures optimal concentration and character expression.
