Description
Montefalco Sagrantino Antonelli organic is produced from 100% Sagrantino grapes grown in the municipality of Montefalco, in the San Marco area. The vineyards are 15 years old and are situated on hilly terrain between 300 and 400 m above sea level with southern and south-western exposure and spurred cordon and Guyot training. This Montefalco Sagrantino di Antonelli is one of the symbolic wines of the territory and wine culture, one that best tells the story and character of the great reds of Umbria.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested manually during the coolest hours of the day, usually starting in mid-October. Once in the cellar, they are gravity-fed into stainless steel maceration tanks, where they ferment in contact with the skins for 25-40 days.
Refinement
Maturation takes place in several stages, beginning with 6 months in tonneaux, followed by 18 months in large oak casks, then 12 months in cement vats and ends with a further 12 months in bottles.

Sommelier Suggestion | This wine is one of the great Italian red wines particularly suited to ageing. It requires a long period of ageing to reach full and harmonious maturity, and its power and structure guarantee extraordinary longevity over time, with important aromatic evolutions. This is why it will reach full expression 10-15 years after the harvest. |
Tasting Notes | In the glass it is an intense, inpenetrable ruby red colour. The nose is grandiose, powerful, ethereal. It expresses dense aromas of red fruits, spicy sensations with hints of tobacco and balsamic nuances. The mouth denotes a remarkable structure, with important tannin leading towards a persistent finish. |
Pairing Advice | |
Pairing | Perfect companion for grilled meat with a good fat content, such as pork, lamb, goose and beef with strong marbling. A worthy companion to large stews, game and very mature cheeses. |
