The “Titolo” 2009 is grown on the slopes of the dormant volcano Monte Vulture, in the Solagna del Titolo district (municipality of Barile, PZ), on volcanic soil rich in pozzolan, lapilli, and clay.
The vines are old (often 45–70 years old) and the harvest takes place late in the season and is done by hand.
In the glass, it displays an intense ruby color, already tending toward garnet at the edges. On the nose, it bursts with a succession of black cherries, ripe plums, and blackcurrants, accompanied by more complex notes: oriental spices (cardamom, cloves), sweet tobacco, mentholated balms, a hint of graphite, and volcanic ash.
On the palate, it offers a full-bodied and harmonious structure: the attack is soft and enveloping, with well-defined yet silky tannins and an acidity that lends it momentum and vigor. The minerality of the terroir is evident, along with savory notes and a persistence that leads to a long finish, featuring hints of ripe red fruit, sweet spice, and a touch of bitterness characteristic of the grape variety.
This wine showcases the best of its terroir: elegant and austere at the same time, it is ready for further aging if stored properly, but is already enjoyable even after a few more years.
