The 2014 Irpinia Rosato Lacrimarosa is this wine's first release as an Irpinia DOC expression (until 2013, this wine was an IGT Campania). Aglianico grapes are sourced from two vineyard spots that are farmed specifically for rosé wine production. For example, reduced leaf pulling protects against excessive phenolic ripening and results in better color clarity. Yields are managed to produce greater freshness and acidity. The wine sees no skin contact in order to reduce its tannic impact. The 2014 Lacrimarosa is thorny in the mouth with white cherry flavors, cassis and cranberry. There are also playful hints of dried herb and sage. The finish is very citrusy with pink grapefruit and lime.
