Description
The 2004 Sagrantino 25 Anni from Caprai is a stunning expression of Marco Caprai's finest winemaking. Made from a hand selection of the property's best Sagrantino grapes and aged for 24 months in small French oak barrels, the wine explodes on the palate with rich dark red fruits, firm tannins and a mineral earthiness that only the Umbrian hills around Montefalco can create.
Food pairing: Pair this very rich & concentrated Sagrantino with grilled beef steaks, lamb chops or venison; rare-roasted leg of lamb; and roasted game hens. This goes very well with dishes accented with black truffles, which are found all around northern Umbria where this wine comes from. It also pairs very well with aged cow- and sheep-milk cheeses.
