Ample nose of red fruit with spices and a subtle hint of vanilla, dried fruits and chocolate. On the palate it is fresh, well-structued, with concentrated tannins in its youth, featuring a long, velvety finish.
Perfect for roasted red meats, rich and elaborate dishes, aged cheeses.
100% Sangrantino aged in wood for 12 months and 6 months in bottle.
The designation of a DOCG appellation for Sagrantino di Montefalco in 1992 solidified the standing of both the Sagrantino varietal and Còlpetrone. Today, the estate consists of 345 acres, 155 of which are vineyards.
Wine Enthusiast Review (Best Buy):
Concentrated aromas of blackberry and blueberry laced with anise, vanilla, clove and dried wildflowers waft from the glass. The refined palate gives more baked plum notes with generous amounts of sweet and savory spices followed by fine tannins, making it a perfect complement to your next barbecue. Drink now–2035. -J.P.
