Colpetrone Sagrantino di Montefalco Sacer 2011

Colpetrone Sagrantino di Montefalco Sacer 2011 is a powerful and characterful expression of one of Italy’s most distinctive native grapes. Sagrantino is renowned for its intensity, firm structure, and remarkable depth, and this wine showcases the traditional strength and longevity that have made Montefalco one of Umbria’s most celebrated red wine regions.

Makuprofiili
Deep ruby in color with garnet reflections, this wine typically shows a dense, concentrated appearance that hints at its serious structure. On the nose, Sagrantino often reveals dark blackberry and plum, layered with dried herbs, sweet spice, leather, and earthy tones, with bottle age bringing more nuanced notes of tobacco, cocoa, and balsamic complexity. On the palate, it is usually full-bodied and firmly tannic, with concentrated dark fruit, savory spice, and a long, persistent finish. The natural richness and structure of Sagrantino give it excellent aging potential, and a 2011 vintage should be well suited to continued development in bottle, softening further while gaining greater aromatic complexity.

Viininvalmistus
Produced in Umbria, in the Montefalco area, this wine comes from a region known for its warm days, cool nights, and hillside vineyards that help preserve freshness while allowing Sagrantino to ripen fully. Harvest is typically carried out by hand to ensure only the best fruit is selected, and careful cellar work is essential to manage the grape’s naturally high tannins and concentration. Vinification is generally focused on extracting color, aroma, and structure, followed by maturation in wood to refine the wine and integrate its powerful character.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This is an excellent wine for hearty dishes such as roasted lamb, grilled beef, game, braised meats, wild boar, and rich mushroom-based recipes. It also pairs well with aged cheeses and traditional Umbrian cuisine. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant for at least one hour, ideally longer if the wine is still showing youthful structure.
