Conti Uttieri Taurasi 2013
Often called ‘the Barolo of the South,’ wines from southern Italy’s premium Taurasi region boast blockbuster flavors and serious ageworthiness. They’re crafted from Aglianico (which critic Ian D’Agata calls “one of the world’s greatest grape varieties”).
The reason we think you need to taste this particular stunning example? In addition to hailing from the excellent 2013 vintage, it earned an impressive 95-point score from critic James Suckling, who raved: “Full body, powerful, and rich. So much going on here.”
Uncork a bottle—we suggest decanting 30 minutes prior to serving to open up all its intense aromas and flavors—and then pour with a hearty osso buco or eggplant Parmesan.
