Marco's flagship and the wine that started it all - this is the first vintage to be crafted in his make-shift garage winery in downtown Milan. Named in reference to a term from local Neapolitan dialect that translates roughly to 'ink,' the Ognostro was born of Marco's desire to recapture the old school soul of his native Taurasi. 100% Aglianico sourced from a 25 year old vineyard in the ancient Montemarano growing region of Taurasi, the wine is fermented and aged in a mix of clay amphora and fiberglass - no oak influence here! Soulful, zen-like and pure, the wine balances plush and spicy black/red berry fruit with mystical layers earthy funk and tart balsamic acidity. Aglianico at its most pure and unadorned.
