2019 Agricola Morasinsi Sferra Cavallo

The 2019 Sferra Cavallo is the wildest, most bare-knuckled expression of Aglianico. Taking its name from the old Murgia tracks so rocky they were said to pull the shoes off horses... this wine charges forward with the same feral, earthy, free-running spirit. Born in the warm winds and limestone soils of the Alta Murgia, this is Aglianico raised the Morasinsi way... fermentation kicks off on its own in concrete, then the wine rests for 20 months across concrete, amphora, and old barrels... unfined, unfiltered, and totally unpolished. In the glass, it’s all dark cherry, wild herbs, potpourri and dusty stone... structured but gentle, with tannins that feel like a firm handshake rather than a punch. It’s honest, elemental, and deliciously alive.
