Every wine needs suitable bunches selected at the right ripeness.

For Sagrantino Passito Semèle, we hand-select 18% of the grapes from our vineyards. Sagrantino grapes are dried on racks in an environment where we recreate the temperature, humidity, and ventilation conditions of the best six vintages of the last 40 years. Fermentation takes place on the skins at controlled temperature, aging is long in oak barrels, and the very long refinement in 0.375-liter bottles.

Sagrantino Passito Semèle is a color is deep ruby red, impenetrable, the texture is remarkable.

The nose is rich: blackberry jam, figs, and dried apricots, candied orange peel, balsamic and empyreumatic notes, vanilla, cinnamon, bitter cocoa, coffee.

The contrast between sweetness and tannicity fully represents the millennia-old tradition of winemaking in Montefalco. The wine is balanced, persistent, of great body. Very long, harmonious, and not cloying.

Traditionally paired with lamb. Excellent with aged cheeses, dark bitter chocolate, and tart with our Sagrantino grape jam.
