Aglianico IGT 'Poliphemo' by Luigi Tecce offers a defined, assertive profile. Deep ruby with violet highlights, it opens with aromas of dark fruit — cherry, plum — accompanied by earthy hints and a subtle spicy note. On the palate it shows structure and a balanced acidity, with tannins present but not aggressive; the finish is persistent, leaving impressions of dark berries and light spice. It is a wine that expresses precision without excess, suited to those seeking intensity and compact olfactory and gustatory character.

Recommended with red meats, roasts, stews and aged cheeses; it also pairs well with traditional dishes featuring mushrooms and legumes. Serve at moderate temperature, and consider opening it before service to encourage aromatic expression. Intended for consumers who appreciate wines with a clear character, it can accompany both informal dinners and more structured preparations.
