These wines are prized for their complex structure, robust tannins and flavor profile that includes notes of ripe fruit, spice, chocolate and tobacco, often enriched by wood aging that adds additional vanilla and toast nuances.
The "Fren Taurasi DOCG" by Stefania Barbot, given the producer's reputation for care and attention to detail, is a high quality wine, which expresses the essence of the Taurasi territory. Stefania Barbot, known for her commitment to creating wines that faithfully reflect the territory and the grape variety, could have adopted viticultural practices and winemaking methods designed to enhance the unique characteristics of Aglianico, while maintaining a balance between aromatic intensity, complexity taste and structural elegance.
The wine has a deep ruby red color, tending towards garnet with aging. On the nose, it would offer a wide range of aromas, from those of berries and ripe plum to more evolved notes of leather, wet earth and dark spices, the result of the interaction between the grape variety and its aging in oak barrels. In the mouth, "Fren Taurasi DOCG" is characterized by a powerful tannic structure, balanced by good acidity and a complexity of flavors that develop into a long and persistent finish.
This Taurasi DOCG is ideal in combination with intense and structured dishes, such as grilled red meats, game, mushroom-based dishes and mature cheeses, able to stand up to the richness and depth of the wine.
