Tabarrini Montefalco Sagrantino Colle Grimaldesco 2018

$6799

Tabarrini’s first Sagrantino, which immediately hit the headlines. The grapes come from silt-rich clay soil with excellent exposure to the South-East to guarantee perfectly mature grapes for a powerhouse of a wine but also balanced. It’s aged in large barrels and released a minimum of four years after harvest.

"The 2018 Montefalco Sagrantino Colle Grimaldesco tempts the imagination with a bouquet mixing rich brown spice with crushed ashen stones and dried black cherries. Silky and enveloping, it washes across the palate with textural ripe red and black fruits, medium weight and energetic grippy tannins mounting toward the close. This finishes dramatically long with cheek-puckering tannins clamping down hard, leaving slowly fading violet inner florals and a wild blueberry tartness. There's a certain magic mix of vintage and house style." —Eric Guido

"The Tabarrini 2018 Montefalco Sagrantino Colle Grimaldesco reveals a rich character and inky appearance with layers of dark fruit that peel back with intensity. The wine is thickly textured and full-bodied with slightly dusty tannins. It sees extended skin maceration and 36 months of aging in oak botte. Colle Grimaldesco is definitely on the bigger side of the spectrum, and that impression is reinforced by the very high 16% alcohol content." —Monica Larner

"Intensely brooding aromas of red and black plums, bittersweet cocoa, violets and baking spices emanate from this Sagrantino. The firm palate showcases the power and elegance of the grape and region. Plump mixed black fruits mingle with savory spice, dried herbs and earthy notes. Lifted acidity brings freshness, while the tannins require aging." —Jeff Porter
