Paternoster Don Anselmo Aglianico del Vulture Doc 2016
94/100
Ruby and bright red colour with a distinctive profile. Classy and lightly spicy on the nose, with notes of ripe strawberry, hydrocarbons hints, cloves and Resin, and more with Wildberries and light leather notes. In the mouth is elegant and mineral, juicy, showing elegance and structure, tannins with hints of minerality, long persistence.
Paternoster Rotondo Aglianico del Vulture Doc 2017
91/100
Intense ruby red colour. At first a slight note of oak wood, followed by dark chocolate, plums, ripe wild berries notes, and a gentle malty undertone. On the mouth is full with medium structured body, consistent and harmonious. The tertiary notes are perfectly integrated in the wine with chalky and slight velvety tannins.
Paternoster Synthesi Aglianico del Vulture Doc 2017
91/100
Bright and ruby red colour. Beeswax, fresh honey, rose hips and slight reminiscence of rubber on the nose, with reminiscences of light resin in the background. Crispy and juicy on the palate, with a clear note of fruit stone. It highlights its own identity with its typical mineral scents and pleasant freshness.
