FATTORIA GALARDI Campania Terra di Lavoro 2017 $65 (92 points)

Creamy and well-knit, this understated, medium- to full-bodied red slowly expands on the palate, revealing pure notes of black currant and star anise, with a tarry underpinning and accents of lavender and bay leaf, graphite and ground black pepper. Sculpted tannins emerge on the harmonious finish. Aglianico and Piedirosso. Best from 2022 through 2032.
