Discover the CAPPELLACCIO CASTEL DEL MONTE AGLIANICO, a standout red wine from Rivera Winery, founded by the de Corato family back in the 1940s. This estate has played a pivotal role in reviving Puglia's wine heritage, nestled in Andria amid the rolling Murgia hills and close to the Adriatic Sea. Across their 75 hectares of vineyards, sustainable approaches highlight the land's distinct character, especially through grapes like Aglianico native to the area.

The 2017 Cappellaccio Aglianico Riserva captures the essence of Aglianico thriving on Castel del Monte's limestone hills. It pours deep garnet red, inviting you into an intense bouquet of ripe red berries mingled with leather and spices. On the palate, expect a warm, full-bodied presence backed by solid structure, leading to a lingering finish where tannins strike a perfect balance.

This Italian red from Puglia carries 13.50% ABV in a standard 750 ml bottle, ready to elevate your table. Its robust profile shines alongside hearty meat sauces or medium-aged cheeses, where every sip draws out layers of depth and personality. Imagine sharing it over a slow-cooked ragu, the wine's warmth weaving seamlessly with savory notes, or pairing it with creamy cheeses that soften its edges just right.

Rivera Winery's commitment to their region's terroir makes this Aglianico Riserva more than a bottle—it's a taste of Puglia's rugged beauty bottled for those evenings when you crave something substantial yet refined. Whether stocking your cellar or planning a special meal, CAPPELLACCIO CASTEL DEL MONTE AGLIANICO delivers reliability and intrigue in every glass, true to its roots between sea and hills.
