Sagrantino di Montefalco

2001 Umbria Red Blend

The Milziade Antano Sagrantino di Montefalco from the illustrious Umbria region showcases a deep, vibrant red color that captivates the eye. This exquisite blend embodies a full-bodied character, offering a richness that envelops the palate with each sip. The high acidity introduces a lively brightness that beautifully balances the wine's depth, while the tannins present a notable structure, providing both firmness and age-worthiness. This aged vintage of 2001 reveals pronounced fruit intensity, with lush notes of dark berries complemented by subtle layers of spice and earthy undertones. As an exceptional expression of Umbria's terroir, this Sagrantino di Montefalco is remarkably dry, making it a fantastic companion for hearty dishes or a delightful indulgence on its own.

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
