2015 Tenuta Principe Alberico Alberico Lazio 750ml

Experience the legendary "Appian Way" heritage with the 2015 Tenuta Principe Alberico "Alberico" Rosso 750ml at VS Liquor. This wine is a tribute to the late Prince Alberico Boncompagni Ludovisi, a reclusive visionary who famously uprooted his vineyards in the 1990s, leaving only a small "historic" parcel of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Today, his descendants continue his uncompromising legacy on the volcanic soils of the Appia Antica near Rome. The 2015 vintage is a powerful expression of this unique terroir, where the vines are tended using strict organic and biodynamic principles. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for two years in large Slavonian oak casks, this Bordeaux-style blend eschews modern "international" trends in favor of a rustic, aristocratic elegance that is singular to the Lazio region.

Whether you are seeking a prestigious gift for a connoisseur of "insider" Italian wines or a high-scoring masterpiece (95 Points, James Suckling; 94 Points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate) to pair with wild boar ragu, dry-aged ribeye, or sharp Pecorino Romano, our online purchase system makes ordering effortless. Take advantage of our reliable home delivery service to have this 14.5% ABV icon brought directly to your door. In the glass, it reveals a deep, brooding garnet color. The bouquet is highly sophisticated and earthy, offering aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and crushed stones, layered with notes of leather, pipe tobacco, and a signature volcanic smokiness. On the palate, it is full-bodied and impeccably balanced, delivering a concentrated core of dark fruit framed by firm, regal tannins and a long, savory finish that reflects the ancient nobility of the estate.
