WINE DESCRIPTION

Arnaldo-Caprai 25 anni Montefalco Sagrantino is a premium red wine produced by Arnaldo-Caprai, a renowned winery located in the Montefalco appellation of Umbria, Italy. This wine is made from the Sagrantino grape variety, which is known for its thick skin and high tannins, resulting in a full-bodied and complex wine. The vineyards are located on hillsides with clay and limestone soils, providing ideal growing conditions for the Sagrantino grapes. The winemaking process involves a long maceration period and aging in oak barrels for 24 months, followed by an additional 12 months in the bottle. The result is a wine with intense aromas of dark fruit, spices, and tobacco, with a rich and velvety texture and a long finish. This wine is a perfect choice for wine enthusiasts looking for a high-quality and unique Italian wine experience.
