Antico Borgo

Campania
The history of the age-worthy Aglianico grape dates back to pre-Roman times. While it can be found all over Southern Italy, the small town of Taurasi in the Campania region, produces an Aglianico very different from the rest. The territory contains volcanic soils that seem to date back to the beginning of time. With a history so deep, so rich, it is just that a wine of the same depth rise from its soil.

The Emperor’s Wine Stands The Taste Of Time In Taurasi

Why You’ll Love Antico Borgo

Antico Borgo is a small craft winery founded by enologist Raffaele Inglese. A native from the town of Taurasi, he has spent his life’s work chiseling native grapes into works of art. From monumental white wines like Fiano di Avellino and Greco di Tufo to the “emperors chalice,” Aglianico red wines, Raffale Inglese just might be the unsung king of Taurasi. He crafts these native treasures without regard to international tastes and trends. A true artisan who chose his own path to seek truth in wine. If you seek authenticity and character, your cellar should make space for these secret masterpieces. Total bottle production: 30,000 bottles annual.

"My wife, a friend, and I attended Tony's May 13, 2020 virtual Italian wine tour. Having the Hidden Gems with us to taste as he described each made for an educational and enjoyable evening. We agreed with his description and assessment of each plus had difficulty picking only one favorite! Understanding the story accompanying each wine with Tony's photographs took us on a mini Italian tour at a welcome time."

"Tony is a master at enhancing meals using his art of pairing amazing wines. I used to get store bought wine when I would have company over or just for dinner. After Tony there is no going back that. His wines are from Italian vineyards that pick their grapes by hand (no machines). You taste wine the it way it was meant to be with Gladiator Wines."
