2020 Colle Ciocco Montefalco Rosso DOC

This traditional Montefalco blend of Sagrantino, Sangiovese and Merlot is born in the Spacchetti Family vineyards on Colle Ciocco.  The individual varieties were harvested in October, and after 3 weeks of maceration and fermentation in steel tanks, the wines were blended and aged in 25 hectoliter French oak barriques for 12 months and an additional 24 months in bottle prior to release.  The 2020 vintage is a wine that shows intense ruby-red color in the glass, and delivers deep and complex aromas of wild berries on the nose, with flavors of plum, cherry and warm spices on the palate. A balanced structure with soft tannins make it easy to drink.

Enjoy this wine with hearty pasta dishes, risotto with porcini mushrooms, pizza, and roasted red meats.  Best served at 65F in a large bowl glass.  Decant prior to enjoying. It is very drinkable now, or cellar for 5-7 years.
