Brooding at first, the 2018 Mastroberardino Stilema Taurasi Riserva opens into a complex weave of dark cherry, blood orange, and smoky spice, layered with wild herbs and a distinct ferrous edge. On the palate it is concentrated yet finely etched, with vibrant acidity carrying red and black fruits through firm, sculpted tannins and a long, focused finish that feels both serious and refined. A powerful, ageworthy expression of Aglianico that still manages impressive grace and lift.
