Great video, Dave! Thank you for taking the time to record your interview with Monica. Aglianico is truly a wonderful varietal, always been one of my favorites, and I am super jealous that you have been able to try all these beautiful expressions! Safe travels!
Hi JMYaden: It was a great trip and Monica had such passion. Yes, Aglianico is one of my favorite varietals, unfortunately people don’t know it and rarely have the chance to buy it. It’s worth seeking out. One more from Campania then that chapter is closed. Cheers, Dave
