WINE DESCRIPTION

Arnaldo-Caprai Collepiano Sagrantino di Montefalco is a red wine produced by Arnaldo-Caprai, a leading producer of Sagrantino wines in the Montefalco appellation of Umbria, Italy. The Collepiano vineyard features south-facing slopes and a mix of clay and limestone soils, which create the ideal growing conditions for Sagrantino grapes. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including long maceration and aging in oak barrels, followed by an additional year of bottle aging. The resulting wine is full-bodied and bold, with intense dark fruit flavors and firm tannins. This wine is known for its ability to age well, gaining complexity and depth with time in the bottle.
