A still wine from Ferrari, the pinnacle of Italian sparkling wines. This wine has the absolutely unique characteristics of the power unique to Sagrantino, an indigenous grape variety of Umbria, and the potential for long-term aging. (Organic certified)

Classification: Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG

Grape variety: 100% Sagrantino

Tasting notes: A concentrated, distinctly deep, brilliant ruby color, with impressive aromas of blackberry jam and blueberry characteristic of Sagrantino, along with attractive notes of brandy-soaked cherries and rose petals. Scents of chocolate and licorice can also be detected. With a creamy texture, powerful and rich fruit flavor, and a very long finish, this is a very elegant and delicate wine with unparalleled finesse and tannins. This wine, with its absolutely unique characteristics of Sagrantino's inherent power and potential for long-term aging, is the result of masterful viticulture techniques and aging in large oak barrels.

Winemaking method: Maceration for 15-20 days, pre-maceration for 30 hours at 12℃, followed by fermentation in wooden barrels at 26-28℃. Aged for 24 months in large oak barrels, then 12 months in bottle.

Pairing: Red meat dishes including game, aged Pecorino cheese
