Colpetrone Sagrantino di Montefalco Memoira 2017

Colpetrone Sagrantino di Montefalco Memoira 2017 is a powerful expression of one of Umbria’s most distinctive native grapes, Sagrantino. From the historic Montefalco zone, it combines depth, structure, and a signature tannic intensity that has made the appellation famous among serious wine lovers.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby in the glass, this wine typically shows an intense, concentrated appearance that hints at its richness. The nose is likely to be layered and complex, with dark berry fruit, dried flowers, spice, and subtle earthy notes, all framed by the grape’s naturally bold character. On the palate, Sagrantino is known for full body, firm tannins, and impressive power, often balanced here by ripe fruit and savory nuance. The finish should be long and structured, with excellent potential to evolve gracefully over time as the tannins soften and the aromatics become more refined.

Production
Sagrantino di Montefalco comes from the hills around Montefalco in Umbria, where the warm days and cooler nights help preserve freshness while allowing full phenolic ripeness. The grape is traditionally harvested carefully to ensure optimal maturity, as it is naturally high in tannins and concentration. Vinification is typically aimed at extracting color, aroma, and structure while maintaining balance and ageworthiness.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as grilled red meats, braised lamb, wild boar, and rich game preparations. It also works well with aged cheeses and truffle-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant for at least an hour, or longer if the bottle has been cellared, to allow the wine to खुल and soften.

Producer
Colpetrone is part of Tenute del Cerro, a respected Italian wine group with a strong presence in key regions. The estate has become an important name in Montefalco for showcasing the potential of Sagrantino, a grape closely tied to the identity of Umbria. Its wines are recognized for combining regional authenticity with modern precision and quality-focused production.
