Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG by La Veneranda is a deeply characterful red from 100% Sagrantino grapes, structured and long-lived, showing an intense ruby color tending to garnet, aromas of ripe red fruits and sweet spices, and prominent tannins well tempered by freshness and alcohol.\u200b<\/p>\n
It comes from the Montefalco area in Umbria, from vineyards at about 300 m a.s.l. on sedimentary soils, slightly clayey with gravel and limestone, trained to spurred cordon; the grape variety is pure Sagrantino.\u200b<\/p>\n
Traditional fermentation in steel with 15\u201320 days of maceration at controlled temperature and daily pump-overs; aging in oak barrels for 36 months, followed by a few months in bottle, as typical of the winery\u2019s style.\u200b<\/p>\n
Intense ruby with garnet highlights; aromas of wild strawberries, raspberry, marasca cherry and notes of vanilla, sweet pipe tobacco and coffee on the finish, for a broad and complex bouquet.\u200b<\/p>\n
Dry, very full-bodied and powerful in alcohol, with freshness and sapidity that make the tannic texture more composed and enjoyable; long persistence and spicy finish.\u200b<\/p>\n
Ideal with important red meats, roasts, game and aged cheeses; it also suits modern fine-dining dishes thanks to the balance of extract, tannin and spice.\u200b<\/p>\n
Serve at 18\u201320 \u00b0C; a brief oxygenation in the glass or decanter is recommended to relax the tannins and broaden the aromatic range.\u200b<\/p>\n
Typical alcohol up to about 16% ABV and aging potential of 15\u201320 years in the top versions, in line with the Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG style.\u200b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
