Montefalco Rosso, Omero Moretti - 2023

750 mL
Item # 53809

Montefalco Rosso is a red blend made from a blend of mostly Sangiovese and Sagrantino grapes. This is a spicy yet fruity wine that was fermented in tank and then spent a year aging in tonneaux casks. On the palate, plush wild berries with a solid structure on the finish. Dry yet very dense and accessible to drink today. Pair with pasta in a meat sauce.
