2023 Aglianico Luigi Maffini
| Grapes | Aglianico |
| Colour | Red |
| Origin | Italy, Campania |
| ABV | 14% |
Pure Aglianico from these beautiful organic vineyards on the Campanian coast. Damson and cherry, spice and herb aromas jump out of the glass here. Bold and lively in the mouth, a saturated deeply fruity core with gorgeous aromas of freshly baked plum, spice and fresh blackberries and black cherries. A sleek line of bright acidity keeps this rattling along beautifully. Deliciously ripe structure - with damson, garrigue herbs, blackberry, violets and delicate spice. L&S (Oct 2025)

Luigi Maffini's vineyards are on the coast of Campania, south of Naples, across the bay from Positano, and planted with the local grapes, Fiano for the whites and Aglianico for the reds. While the family's first vines were planted in the seventies, the real beginning of this winery dates from 1996.
Luigi and his wife Raffaella are both graduates of Naples university in agricultural sciences. Luigi specialised in viticulture and winemaking. Ten years elapsed between our first tasting of his wines and getting Luigi 'on board', but he has now been with L&S since 2009.
Raffaella and Luigi run the vineyards organically, and share the land with their two children and three dogs, as well as hares, foxes, hedgehogs, hawks and wild boar, with which they are happy to live in peace. There are now two vineyard sites, at Castellabate and Giungano, so some of the wines are DOC Cilento and some DOC Paestum.
