Elena Fucci

Three Gambero Rosso Glasses for 11 consecutive years, Super Tre Stelle Veronelli, Cinque Grappoli Bibenda, as well as Slow Wine , for the respect and commitment shown towards the environment: these are just some of the prizes that make up the nourished palmarès of the Title , Elena Fucci's only wine, recognized as one of the 100 best Italian wineries of 2018 by the influential American magazine Wine Spectator.

Behind this great oenological success lies the passion of a then barely girl, today a woman of wine , who has been able to believe with tenacity and confidence in the future in the Vulture area, and that although in those days it was not known to most, it has not wanted to give to the highest bidder the ancient family vineyards, aged 55 to 70 years , and brought Aglianico del Vulture to its top quality, transforming the way of understanding this wine and making the Title a symbol for the whole name.

This red of character comes to life from a particular volcanic soil which takes the name of pozzolana , consisting of layers of lava, ash and clay, which protects the plant in periods of greatest drought. Low yields and a well-followed fruit maturity are the basis of its quality, together with 12 months of aging in barrique and a further 12 months in bottle, for a complete evolution of this wine, in its unique and unmistakable characters.

It is a ruby-colored wine tending to garnet with the passing of the years, with a bouquet with marked hints of ripe berries and spices typical of the passage in wood, where you can feel the clear minerality of the volcano. It expresses incredibly elegant tannins, excellently balanced by the extractive sweetness, which make it extremely drinkable, becoming more harmonious and velvety with aging.
