Tasting notes
The 2004 Casavecchia is a seriously powerful, structured wine. Complex notes of graphite, dark cherries, menthol and minerals flow from this brooding beauty. New shades of expression come to life as this beautiful wine continues to open up in the glass, revealing new dimensions to its personality with every taste. Casavecchia is an indigenous variety that is being re-discovered in Caserta, outside of Naples. Based on this and other recent examples, it clearly offers significant potential.
