Cantina Dei Monaci 2001 Monaco Rosso Aglianico (Taurasi)

  1. $49
Sweet oak-driven notes of vanilla, chocolate and spice shape a modern Taurasi with a soft and supple side. The wine is dense and chewy with thick, dark tannins and loads of mineral intensity to fuel a long-lasting finish.  — M.L.  (10/1/2008)

Cantina Dei Monaci 2006 Fiano (Fiano di Avellino)

  1. $18
There’s more structure and power here with aromas that recall yellow flowers, pear and melon. In the mouth, the wine has delicate mineral tones and piquant freshness on the finish that leaves a fresh, spicy impression.  — M.L.  (10/1/2008)

  1. $18
Crisp and easy with a pristine and luminous appearance and nice tones of pear and peach blossom, this is a no-fuss white that would pair well with fish or appetizers. The alcohol is a bit high but it offers clean acidity and mineral tones in the mouth for balance.  — M.L.  (10/1/2008)
