Arnaldo Caprai Sagrantino di Montefalco 25 Anni is the symbolic wine not only of a winery but of the whole appellation. Arnaldo Caprai's Sagrantino di Montefalco DOCG 25 Anni showed all the potentialities of Montefalco and of Sagrantino. Powerful, rich, full, extroverted, characterized by a tannic texture of rare compactness, it is a red wine capable of a truly uncommon elegance. Left to mature for at least two years in small oak barrels, followed by a long aging in bottle, it is a unique red wine for its structure and longevity. Already today extraordinarily expressive, it will give emotions for many many years.
The Brunello di Montalcino Le Potazzine 2012 is a splendid Brunello, a bottle that needs no introduction and no long preamble. Like all the wines from the Le Potazzine winery, it is refined and elegantly recounts one of Italy's most renowned terroirs. It expresses itself elegantly on the nose: it is deep and broad, with romantic nuances of red fruit, accompanied by hints of aromatic herbs and spices. On tasting it reveals its noble character, its austere tannins capable of giving a sensation of very fine harmony and an immense materiality in communicating the splendid hillocks on which the "potazzine" fly gracefully. A great Brunello di Montalcino, aged in large casks for 40 months.
The Friuli Isonzo Bianco DOC Flors di Uis di Vie di Romans is a stupendous and well-chosen blend of Malvasia, Riesling and Friulano, capable of delighting the palate and the mind: full, fragrant, juicy and tasty. Passion fruit, mango, floral notes, sweet spices, vanilla nuances: all the scents almost seem to come to life in the glass and reach the nose, literally satisfying it.
On tasting, the wine continues to be very expressive, with a predominance of the floral over the other flavours.
It is deep, vivid and structured.
The 2018 Nicolucci Predappio Vigna del Generale Riserva shows a transparent and brilliant ruby red colour. The nose plunges into a bed of voluptuous sensations that recall the undergrowth, through scents of raspberries, blueberries, wild cherries and sloes, among whiffs of ferns, sandalwood bark and cinchona. This is followed by dark tobacco, coffee and chocolate, a memory of black rye bread and hints of graphite and iron. Flexuosity is the key to understanding the taste, caressed by silky tannins and invigorating acidity. There is a long, pseudo-caloric sensation in the finish, reminiscent of red fruit chocolate. Matures 24 months in oak casks and 3 months in the bottle.
Wine obtained from vineyards about 30 years old with a planting density of 10,000 vines per hectare at an altitude of 400/600 metres above sea level. The yield per hectare is 30 hectolitres.
The land is not subjected to any kind of fertilisation, but is only treated with clay, propolis and grapefruit seed extract. The grapes are harvested in 40 separate parts.
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in 40hl steel tanks. Ageing takes place for 8 months in second, third and fourth passage French oak barriques and 10 months in cement.
The result is a complete, mouth-watering and authentic wine with an impressive drinking capacity. It is a pleasure to follow the interweaving of its notes and be seduced by its precise tannins, perhaps accompanying it with red meats.
