Winery Review: Produced in the Campania region of Italy, this Aglianico has delicious black fruit flavors with hints of licorice, volcanic soil and tar notes. Classic in nature, yet in a lighter, more crowd-pleasing style, the Carraia is made of the ancient Aglianico grape. This black grape originated in Greece and today is widely grown in Basilicata and Campania.
My Review: This wine smelled fruity and had a pretty color. The taste was different, almost earthy. I could taste hints of cherry and I thought it had a horrible after taste. I think this wine would be better if paired with food, which I did not have any with it.
