It displays an intense ruby red colour and a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex aromatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, characterised by notes of cherry, violet and well-defined spiciness. On the palate, it is \u003cstrong\u003eenveloping and elegant\u003c\/strong\u003e, supported by a solid structure and aromas of plum and wild strawberry. The perfect balance between its components ensures \u003cstrong\u003eremarkable longevity\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it ideal for pairing with roasted meats and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from Irpinia and are the result of a careful \u003cstrong\u003eblend\u003c\/strong\u003e of fruit grown in the estates of Montemarano and Mirabella Eclano. The vineyards are located at around four hundred and fifty metres above sea level, with optimal south-east and south-west exposures. The \u003cstrong\u003emarked temperature variations\u003c\/strong\u003e typical of this area favour a slow and steady ripening of the grapes. The combination of the \u003cstrong\u003eclay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e of Montemarano and the \u003cstrong\u003esandy loam soils\u003c\/strong\u003e of Mirabella Eclano gives the wine the structure and acidity needed to undergo significant ageing over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place between the end of October and the beginning of November. In the winery, red vinification is carried out with a \u003cstrong\u003elong maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e on the skins at a controlled temperature, a fundamental process for the optimal extraction of colour and polyphenols. Subsequently, the wine matures in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for about twenty-four months, acquiring greater softness of the tannins. The production process concludes with bottle ageing for at least twenty-four months, which refines its structural depth and final elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn emblem of the historic dedication of the \u003cstrong\u003eMastroberardino\u003c\/strong\u003e family, active in Irpinia since 1878, Radici is born from the union of fine grapes from the estates of Montemarano and Mirabella Eclano. The marked temperature variations of these terroirs favour the slow ripening of the \u003cstrong\u003epure Aglianico\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving the wine noble tannins and extraordinary longevity.
