Description and technical sheet
Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG Memoira 2017 Còlpetrone originates from the estate vineyards located in Gualdo Cattaneo, in the heart of Umbria, an area particularly suited to Sagrantino production. The Còlpetrone winery stands as one of the denomination’s key references, consistently expressing the territory’s identity and the structure of this native grape variety. Made from 100% Sagrantino grapes, the wine ferments with temperature-controlled maceration followed by a second post-fermentation maceration that enhances extraction and complexity. After racking, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in French oak barriques, where it rests for 12 months before completing its evolution with an additional 6 months of bottle aging. The result is a characterful red wine with a deep ruby color, authentically reflecting Umbrian winemaking tradition and the structured nature of Sagrantino.
Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG Memoira 2017 Còlpetrone: tasting notes
On the nose, it reveals an intense bouquet dominated by ripe red fruits, blackberry and black cherry, enriched by spicy hints of black pepper, cloves and delicate vanilla nuances from oak aging. On the palate, it is powerful and decisive, with dense, enveloping tannins supporting a full-bodied structure and a long, persistent finish. The tannic texture, typical of the variety, integrates with good freshness, offering balance and promising further bottle development.
