Azienda Agraria Scacciadiavoli

Sagrantino di Montefalco 2013

The wine delivers aromas of ripe red fruits like black cherry and raspberries. It has strong notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and other smoked aromas. In the palate you can feel the tart red fruit flavors mixed with vegetal notes of green pepper and other herbal flavors.

It is one of Central Italy's most tannic wines. A ver interesting and recommended bottle! 🍷

About the producer: "Azienda Agraria Scacciadiavoli is an estate in Umbria situated in the wine producing region of Montefalco. It has been owned by the Pambuffetti family since 1954.

The name "Scacciadiavoli" stems from the words "scacciare", meaning to banish, and "diavoli", the Italian word for devils. This unusual name can be traced back to an 18th century exorcism of a woman, whereby she was given red wines as a means of expelling the demon from her body."
Cheers to Italy! 🍷

This had some really attractive characteristics of aged #burgundy This wine was quiet and very elegant with great balance. The structure was firm but finessed. The length was lingering but not very long. A slight fizz when first opened added to the exciting character of this #sagrantinodimontefalco #paolobea #umbria #italy #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago
