The Sagrantino vine, cultivated for centuries exclusively in Montefalco, seems to have been brought there from Asia Minor by the followers of S. Francesco.

Excellent wine. Intense ruby red color, full, elegant bouquet with hints of cherry, soft and voluminous flavor. In the ancient tradition of the Montefalco area, after having selected the grapes for the production of Montefalco Sagrantino, all the other red varieties were picked for the composition of a fresher and easy-to-match wine. Scacciadiavoli is inspired by this tradition and perfects it by adding that touch that makes this wine even more lovable.

Ruby red in the glass, with important garnet reflections. The nose, ripe and fruity, recalls sunsweet plums, dark cherries in jam and sour cherries in alcohol, before veering towards notes of camphor, dark chocolate, maple syrup and lavender. Intense in the mouth, characterized by a well-present tannic texture but of excellent quality. Full-bodied, warm and long in persistence. Perfect with venison or venison, it should be tried together with leg of roe deer with aromatic herbs.

The color is deep, the bouquet is sensual and the body is vigorous. Wine whose refinement is appreciated when young, when fruit and spices blend with the taste of wood, in which Sagrantino has been elevated. But it is after a few years that its success is fully appreciated, when balsamic notes intervene and the tannins soften: thus we discover a wine with a great personality. Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG is suitable for long aging: 20 and more years. Rich in polyphenols which have antioxidant and therefore beneficial properties. The presence of deposits in the bottom of the bottle is natural. Sagrantino Di Montefalco Scacciadiavoli

That the Trebbiano Spoletino grape is of high enological interest is now a certain fact. It is an ancient vine that has only recently been rediscovered. It can be grown in the territory of Spoleto and Montefalco. In our cellar we have aimed to capture the finer and at the same time intriguing soul of this grape. We have given space to its changing and original aromas with a vinification in amphora that respects these characteristics and then we have strengthened its expressive character with an aging in untoasted wood and amphora for at least 9 months. In our opinion the result is that of a great white wine for aging, capable of surprising at every sip for its richness of facets.

Intense, deep ruby red, at times impenetrable to the eye. It opens to the nose with clear scents of dark, overripe fruit, reminiscent of currants, plum jam and sour cherries in alcohol. Tertiary tones then emerge, leading the memory towards Christmas spices, nutmeg, tobacco, coffee and cocoa. The palate is set on an imposing tannic texture, which is worked to the chisel. Important body, warm mouthfeel and long persistence. Perfect with game, it is excellent with jugged hare.
