The Fiano di Avellino Vino della Stella di Joaquin comes from the vineyards around the Montefalcione estate, in the heart of Irpinia. We are at about 550 meters above sea level, on calcareous-clayey soils; the climate is cool and with significant temperature variations, therefore allowing for a long and slow maturation of the Fiano with excellent development of the aromatic compounds. The strictly manual harvest takes place in early November; after soft pressing of the grapes, the must is fermented in steel tanks with maceration on the skins for a couple of days. The wine then undergoes partial malolactic fermentation and after a short passage in the barrel, completes the refinement with at least six months in the bottle before being released on the market.

"I Viaggiatori Botte Single" is a special selection of Aglianico produced by Joaquin . It is a lot from a single barrel which, forgotten in the cellar, has allowed for longer aging than usual, we are talking about 4 years of aging. After tasting this nectar it was decided to bottle it separately, given the incredible nuances it was endowed with thanks to this longer refinement. The vineyards rise on volcanic soil and are over a century old plants; very low yields but of supreme quality, as is evident in this Aglianico "I Viaggiatori single cask" Joaquin . The nose is a continuous release of different scents, first ripe red fruit, then spices, cocoa, balsamic and citrus notes. On the palate it enters sinuous and delicate and then explodes in its majesty. Dense but velvety tannins, perfectly integrated with acidity and flavor. It does not need pairings, taste it alone.
