Montefalco Sagrantino Vitruvio DOCG 2018 - Briziarelli

Vitruvio is only selected in the best years suitable for a Riserva. Briziarelli selects the grapes from the selected vines, ferments and macerates the harvest for around 25 days at a controlled temperature. Biological acid degradation is already taking place in barriques, after which the wine rests and matures for around 24 months. This is followed by a further 24 months in steel tanks before it is bottled. Vitruvio Montefalco Sagrantino is only ready for sale after another 12 months in the bottle. It is a wine of great structure, with a complex aroma. The aromas are reminiscent of cooked berries and fruits, ripe flowers and medicinal herbs. A long file of fine scents spread through the glass. On the palate, there is a perfect balance between acidity, velvety tannins and an alcohol content of 15.5%, which is by no means heavy.
