2021 Nativ Rue Dell'Inchiostro Aglianico Campania

A bold and evocative red from the volcanic soils of Campania, the 2021 Nativ Rue Dell'Inchiostro Aglianico opens with intense aromas of ripe black cherry, crushed blackberry, and dark plum, interwoven with heady notes of violet, black licorice, and dried herbs. Subtle undertones of espresso, graphite, and sweet spice unfold with air, lending depth and intrigue to the bouquet.

On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and structured, with firm, polished tannins that support a rich core of dark fruit and savory earth. Layers of tobacco, cocoa, and iron-rich minerality add dimension through the mid-palate, while a lifted acidity provides balance and freshness. The finish is long and persistent, marked by a refined tension between power and elegance—an expressive reflection of Aglianico’s noble character and the region’s volcanic terroir.

Crafted with intensity and precision, Rue Dell'Inchiostro exemplifies Nativ’s dedication to showcasing the profound depth and aging potential of Campania’s flagship varietal.
