"Montefalco Rosso embodies a great bond between the wine and the area of Montefalco. It is produced from Sangiovese, Sagrantino and Merlot, which epitomizes the character and identity championed by the Arnaldo Caprai winery.
Sensationally intense, with notes of wild flowers, violet and red berry jam. Full bodied, rich, dry with a long finish and delicate hint of spice." -Winemaker's Notes

Black cherry and spice dominate the aroma, along with an intense floral element. The wine is lush on the palate, with gripping tannins, mouthwatering acidity and ample dark fruit notes both fresh and preserved with an undertone of clove and cinnamon.

A fragrant red, with expressive notes of Mediterranean scrub on the nose and palate, plus juicy flavors of baked black cherry and black plum. Concentrated and medium-bodied, with chewy tannins emerging to firm the spiced finish. Sangiovese, Sagrantino and Merlot. Drink now through 2027. 17,000 cases made, 1,500 cases imported.

The 2021 Montefalco Rosso bursts from the glass with a lively display of sweet herbs, cherry sauce and split pint hints. It's more savory than sweet with a potent wave of tart wild berries lifted fresh mint. This tapers off with tension, more structured than anticipated, leaving dark chocolate and exotic nuances.
