Il Cortiglio

Il Cortiglio operates in Taurasi, Campania's celebrated enclave for Aglianico in southern Italy. The region's volcanic soils and continental climate forge wines of structure and aging potential from this native grape. The winery's Taurasi, a pure expression of Aglianico, demonstrates the variety's characteristic dark fruit, tannin architecture, and mineral spine. Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator have assessed the winery's output, with the Taurasi earning an average prestige rating of 88.8. Aglianico thrives in Taurasi's demanding terroir, where altitude and soil composition demand long maceration and extended aging—conditions that build complexity and longevity into the final wine.
