Review
The 2020 Terra del Gragnano is a slightly fizzy blend of Piedirosso, Aglianico and Sciascinoso that wafts up with a smoky bouquet of blackberries, rich brown spice and hints of sage. It balances silky textures with nervous acidity and a gentle bead of bubbles, as ripe wild berry fruits cascade across the palate. This tapers off persistent and gently sweet, leaving notes of black raspberry to linger.

Review
The 2021 Terra del Gragnano comes to life with a bouquet that's like opening a box of violet candies complemented by a blowl fo red plums and blackberries. It's cool-toned and mineral in style, with a gentle bead of bubbles and blue and puple inner florals that cascade throughout. This leaves a coating of grippy tannins with remaining perfectly juicy and fresh. Tart raspberry hints slowly taper off. The Terra del Gragnano reminds me very much of the most serious expressions of Lambursco that are now tranding. It's a belnd of 60% Piedirosso, 30% Aglianico and 10% Sciascinoso.
