The 2010 Taurasi is a delightful expression that hits all the high marks. The quality of fruit is ripe and extra generous with blackberry marmalade, chocolate, tar, licorice, pressed flower and spice. The oak element is evident but feels well integrated within the general richness of the wine's fruit density and overall concentration. This is one of Feudi's nicest Taurasi expressions thanks to the smooth and seamless way the wine wraps thickly over the palate. You get some herbal tones on the close with bay leaf, soya and Asian spice. 
Producer
Feudi di San Gregorio
One of the region’s greatest producers, Feudi di San Gregorio, carries its well-earned reputation as Italy’s most innovative wineries. Situated in the Avellino hills of Campania, this estate is best known for their first-class Aglianico wines. These long-lived wines, labelled as Taurasi DOCG, have the persistence to age beautifully for more than 50 years. Founded by Enzo Ercolino and his wife, Mirella Capaldo in the 1980s, the winery has become an upstanding reference-point for Campania’s indigenous grape varieties, like Fiano, Aglianico and Greco di Tufo. Today, the estate offers a unique range of quality white, red and sparkling wines. Their collection includes Taurasi, which is considered one of the country’s most complex and powerful reds, as well as Serpico - a mighty Aglianico bottling, and a delicious white, Fiano di Avellino. Through the work of winemaker, Riccardo Cotarella and famed French Champagne producer, Anselme Selosse, Feudi di San Gregorio also crafts a series of high-end sparkling wines.
