ARNALDO CAPRAI Sagrantino di Montefalco DOCG “25 Anni” 2008

HK$960.00

25 Anni is the result of research and careful clonal selection of Sagrantino’s best grapes. This jubilee wine was produced for the first time in 1993 to celebrate the winery’s 25th anniversary. Since then, 25 Anni has kept its name as well as its unique character, power and elegance. Aged 24 months in French oak barrique.

“This wine deserves its lofty reputation as one of Italy’s premier bottlings. It opens with a gorgeous fragrance of berry, leather, truffle and spice. The palate delivers ripe and delicious black cherry, black berry, white pepper and chocolate notes accompanied by firm but refined tannins. This will age beautifully and develop complexity for decades. Drink 2016–2028.Cellar Selection” – Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points
