The Rosso "La Firma" Aglianico del Vulture DOC from Cantina del Notaio expresses the typical Aglianico character: firm yet balanced. On the nose it offers notes of ripe red fruit, impressions of plum and cherry, accompanied by light herbal and mineral hints recalling volcanic soils. The color is deep ruby with violet reflections, indicating the wine's concentration. The structure is tannic but composed, with good acidity supporting the sip and providing freshness; on the palate it shows present but smoothed tannins and a compact flavor texture. The finish is persistent, with fruity reprises and a gentle spiciness.

It pairs well with traditional dishes such as meat sauces, roasts and aged cheeses, and also suits contemplative tasting. A short decanting before serving is recommended to soften younger tannins, and serve at around 16–18 °C. Ideal for those seeking a clearly territorial Aglianico, produced by Cantina del Notaio with attention to quality without expressive excess.
