Sagrantino is the speciality of the Umbrian town of Montefalco. This extraordinary variety has enormous quality potential, producing some of Italy’s most powerful and distinctive wines.
At Tenuta Alzatura, Sagrantino is treated with the utmost respect. It features as a small percentage in the Montefalco Rosso blend alongside Sangiovese, but shows its true character when vinified as a pure expression in the Montefalco Sagrantino. The grape is renowned for its high concentration, acidity, and alcohol, all of which contribute to wines with remarkable ageing potential.
