The 2018 Montefalco Sagrantino Collepiano shows that special Caprai touch that evokes softness and texture without going overboard. Striking that balance is incredibly difficult with a grape like Sagrantino that comes bursting out of the gate with power and often astringency. This wine is alive and fruity with a 15.5% alcohol content that is woven into its rich mouthfeel. Production is 70,000 bottles.

An elegant spin on Sagrantino, with supple tannins and a fresh spine of acidity layered as a springboard for flavors of crushed cherry and black raspberry fruit, Earl Grey tea, dried rose petal and sandalwood aromatic. A subtle streak of minerally iron and smoke plays on the graceful finish. Drink now through 2031. 10,000 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–AN??Region: Italy / Montefalco Sagrantino Select to Add
