Hither & Yon Aglianico 2013

  14:30    

Licorice root, amaro/bitter wood and herb - deliciously savoury with a dark undercurrent.

 Yet, for that darkness, it squarely fits the H&Y profile of producing deliciously appealing wines. Fruit, by way of cherry and plum, with a moreish tang and juiciness. 

 That black edge reappears on the back palate - a little licorice root against the lighter touch of raspberry over spice. Conclusion? A possibly conservative 90

 Tasted on: Saturday 18th April, a Leaf transitioning to Fruit day

    I'm a big Hither & Yon fan, and their Aglianico is always solid.
