From the oustanding 2016 vintage, this is a modern wine and one of great beauty. It is red in colour with warm, granite tones and aromas of red and black berries that gradually give way to notes of tobacco, oriental spices, liquorice and chocolate. These are confirmed in the mouth. The flavour is full and expressive, dominated by the rich fruit and refined tannins. Il Sigillo is smooth, with a density that is balanced by its freshness.

Long-lasting and lingering, the wine offers pleasant sensations of fruit, spices, and hints of refreshing eucalyptus.

Cantine del Notaio is a relatively new winery, located amidst the volcanic landscape of Mount Vulture. It was born in 1998 from the vision of Gerardo Giuratrabocchetti and his wife, Marcella, who set out to restore the estate that once belonged to Gerardos grandfather.

This wine will age comfortably for 10+ years, and is worth revisiting to enjoy it at different stages of maturity.
