Reviews
Sagrantino is a sturdy grape from Italy's Umbria region, amped with a ferocity of tannic mettle, a sachet of dried herbs that pour across the palate and an intensity of ferruginous earth, dark-fruit allusions and cherry liqueur. But fear not, this has been extracted with aplomb, gently and almost pulpy. The oak is nestled amidst the fray as a brake of restraint rather than a clutch of amplitude. Yet the tannins, sooty and granular, molten and dark, define the finish. Demands food rich in iron and protein as a salve. Impressive. 93 points
