VINOUS 94 POINTS – “The 2020 Montefalco Sagrantino Collepiano entices with a whiff of white smoke and peppery florals before giving way to blackberries, chalk dust and dried violets. This is a total pleasure on the palate, rich yet polished, displaying supreme elegance with its wave of ripe red and black fruits all carried across a stream of pure silk. The 2020 tapers off with dramatic length and a pleasantly bitter black tea concentration. Sweet tannins linger long. ” – Eric Guido
Aged 22 months in French oak barrique, which adds toasted oak, vanilla, woodsy balsam, and clove aromas and flavors to the blackberry jam, dried cherry, & black pepper fruit character. Powerful, fine-grained tannin help allow this wine age gracefully. Best served with hearty stews and braises, or simply after a meal or with a cheese course.
