Description
Our heritage: a sweet wine
A wine inherited from the Umbrian peasant tradition, today a niche product. Not everyone knows that Sagrantino, until a few decades ago, existed only in its version of sweet wine, the wine of the feast, the sacred wine that cheered the spirits.
Vinification process
Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature with maceration on the skins for about 20 days. Malolactic fermentation in steel and subsequent refinement in barriques for about 18 months, followed by a further 20 months in steel at a controlled temperature. Rest for at least 4 months in the bottle.
Food pairings
Excellent in combination with a Tuscan cigar or dark chocolate with crunchy cocoa beans inside, sweet gorgonzola chees or even alone, as a meditation wine. For more refined combinations: hare, lamb or venison.
