Caleno Riserva DOC 2015 – Aged Southern Italian Red from Nugnes (75cl)
A bold, age-worthy red from Campania, Caleno Riserva DOC 2015 by Azienda Agricola Nugnes delivers the richness and structure of southern Italy with the elegance of a finely aged wine. Crafted from carefully selected grapes and matured in oak, this Riserva represents the best of traditional Campanian winemaking.
Tasting Notes:
Deep garnet in colour, the wine opens with complex aromas of black cherry, dried fig, tobacco, and dark chocolate. The palate is full-bodied and well-balanced, with layers of plum, spice, leather, and balsamic notes. Tannins are smooth and integrated, leading to a long, warm finish with subtle oak influence.
Region & Style:
Produced in Campania’s DOC region near Caserta, this Riserva reflects both volcanic terroir and careful cellar ageing. The 2015 vintage has had nearly a decade to evolve in bottle, offering a mature, sophisticated expression that pairs beautifully with robust dishes.
