"The 2006 Irpinia Aglianico Cinque Querce is a drop-dead gorgeous wine. A vibrant, full-bodied red, the Cinque Querce offers tons of complexity in its black cherries, violets, spices, minerals and menthol, showing superb density and richness. Sweet balsamic notes resonate on the finish, rounding out this exceptional wine. Best of all this -baby Taurasi- is reference point juice that won't break the bank. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016."
