Descripción

Elaborado por Arnaldo Caprai, Collepiano representa el renacimiento de Montefalco como región vinícola y de la Sagrantino como variedad única cultivada sólo en Montefalco. Un tinto extraordinario en nariz, donde destacan las notas a mermelada de moras, pimienta, clavo, vainilla y balsámicos con un toque empolvado. En boca es potente y elegante.

Opinión de los críticos

The Wine Advocate:

The 2015 Montefalco Sagrantino Collepiano benefits from more stringent fruit selection. "We are limited to only the best fruit for this wine, and we changed the way we pick with multiple harvests," says Marco Caprai. This warm and sunny vintage has shaped a generous and inviting wine that is opulent, bold and rich all at once. This wine offers ample power, yet it's not as bruising as past vintages I remember. The 2015 vintage flaunts its curvy physique.

James Suckling:

This is a plush, ripe red with dried plums and notes of tar and ash, as well as a touch of menthol. Full-bodied and ripe, but structured and dialed-in. Decadent on the finish. With a tad less alcohol, this would score even more highly. Drink from 2023.

Wine Enthusiast:

Aromas of dark-skinned berries, toasted oak and underbrush lead the nose. The spicy, structured palate offers dried black cherry, black pepper, tobacco and clove alongside tight, close-grained tannins. Drink 2022–2029.
