Tasting Notes

"The 2005 Terra di Lavoro is an excellent choice for readers seeking a fairly approachable vintage that won’t require extended cellaring. Because of the cold summer, this is a rather delicate Terra di Lavoro laced with red cherries, crushed flowers and a fresh, vinous quality I find highly appealing. The 2005 is a mid-weight Terra di Lavoro, but the lively acidity should allow the wine to age gracefully for a number of years. The aromatics and flavors aren’t fully developed, but with some air the 2005 is relatively approachable today. It is a beautiful Terra di Lavoro that only suffers from the wines surrounding it. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025." - Antonio Galloni, Aug 2010

The Producer

Galardi

Galardi, a family-owned estate, stands out in a league of its own. It was founded in 1991, and they specialize in crafting a single wine of almost unparalleled perfection. Situated in an idyllic location characterized by volcanic, sloping soils in the northwestern part of Italy's Campania region, Galardi benefits from the influence of the Mediterranean Ocean's breezes and the exceptional soil composition, which makes the cultivation of native grape varieties like Aglianico and Piedirosso almost second nature. While these unique soils impart distinctive flavours to the wine, they also result in incredibly low yields. As a result, only a few thousand bottles of Galardi's flagship wine, Terra di Lavoro, are produced each year, causing both its quality and price to soar.
