Arnaldo Caprai Description
25th Anniversary is the result of in-depth 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.
Tasting Notes: The aroma presents an unexpected complexity with elements of dark berries, dark flowers, chocolate, walnuts, spices, and nutmeg, with a hint of balsam. The taste includes pepper, clove, and refined spices, featuring concentrated and smooth tannins.
Vinous Media: 96 Points
The 2019 Sagrantino di Montefalco 25 Anni is imposing, grumbling up with a dark blend of dried black cherries, crushed plums, sage, allspice and sweet mint. This is texturally thrilling, velvety yet cooling, weighty yet spry, washing across the palate with polished red and black fruits and slowly building black-tea tannins. A menagerie of spices lingers along tobacco and blood orange nuances, finishing with tremendous length and concentration. The balance is absolutely fantastic. This is a stunning performance.
