Description

We’ll be tasting four of his wines at this special event: 2020 Falanghina Caulina - reg. $20 / $17.99 sale A superb example of this ancient dry white varietal – infused with the minerality of its volcanic soils, with vineyards forming an amphitheater near Naples. 2021 Pallagrello Bianco Caiati – reg. $32 / $24.99 sale This extraordinary wine, with multiple Gambero Rosso 3-glass vintages, is Alois’s most acclaimed. It’s entirely from the high-altitude Terre del Volturno vineyard. 2018 Aglianico Campole – reg. $25 / $19.99 sale 2016 Aglianico Campole – reg. $25/$19.99 sale Two top vintages of this noble red. Alois says: This Aglianico is as pure an expression of the land as can be, having been produced in biological manner and without the influence of oak. Like all of these, organically farmed.
