It produces wines of real depth, structure and personality, and Montecalvo's version delivers all of that at an outstanding price. Sustainably produced, vegetarian and vegan-friendly, this is a wine you can feel good about drinking. Fleshy, juicy and full of dark fruit character, it is as versatile at the table as it is enjoyable on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVineyard and Production\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 100% Aglianico grapes are cultivated in the chalky clay soils of the Benevento hills in Campania, a terroir that gives the variety its characteristic structure, acidity and dark fruit intensity.
