From the heart of the Taurasi DOCG in Campania, Salvatore Molettieri’s 2015 "Cinque Querce" is a stunning expression of Aglianico. This wine embodies the deep, robust character of the grape, offering a beautiful balance of dark fruit, earthiness, and complexity, ideal for those who appreciate wines with structure and aging potential.

The nose opens with aromas of black cherries, plums, and dried figs, intertwined with earthy notes of tobacco, leather, and a hint of spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, with ripe dark fruit flavors complemented by smooth tannins and vibrant acidity. As it evolves, the wine reveals layers of complexity, including mineral nuances and subtle hints of cocoa. The finish is long and refined, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruit and earthy depth.

Perfect for pairing with rich, savory dishes like roasted meats, braised lamb, or a hearty mushroom risotto, this Taurasi "Cinque Querce" will continue to develop beautifully over the years. It’s drinking beautifully now but will reward those who have the patience to cellar it for a few more years.

"The 2015 Taurasi Cinque Querce dazzles with a vivid blend of rum-soaked currants dusted with cocoa and sweet sage. It’s deeply textural, with masses of ripe black fruits complicated by savory herbs, as rosy inner florals form toward the close. The 2015 finishes incredibly long yet structured, with edgy tannins that collect around the perimeter of the palate. Salted licorice tones linger. What a beauty. The 2015 vintage marks a return to form for the Taurasi Cinque Querce. Lose this deep in the cellar." -Vinous
