Tabarrini
Campo Alla Cerqua Sagrantino di Montefalco
Montefalco, Perugia, Umbria, Italy
Light cocoa on the nose, mineral infused, faint cedar. Tight tannins that linger for just a moment with an underlying fruit quality. Green fruit, high acid. Lay it down to see how it will develop & you’ll be thrilled with the results.

Huge with nice underlying minerality but a little hot for me. Almost like Martinelli Jackass of Italy

Super structure but still too young. Can age for another 5 years.

I believe this is my first Sagrantino. Supports this steak quite well. Acidic and tannic. 15% ABV.

Wow. These guys need time. Big bold tannic beauty. Had several and can't help myself. Need to wait five more years if I can. This one decanted 4 hours and was really good. A great one for the last bottle of the night.

Weird. Sagrantino usually completes me. I poured this into my glass an hour before drinking and savored the crap out of it for a good long while. Or at least tried to. The one thing missing was a savor-worthy wine in my glass. This was a little rubbery and just not all that enjoyable. I feel cheated. In my heart.
