Wines of Umbria

From the vineyards of the Lunelli family, between Montefalco and Bevagna, comes Ziggurat, a Montefalco Rosso DOC which is the perfect synthesis of the power of the Sagrantino and Sangiovese grapes, also assisted by a small quantity of Cabernet and Merlot, to smooth out its roughness.

Wine obtained mainly from Sangiovese grapes. Deep, red in color, scent of ripe fruit. Aging in steel tanks and a few months in the bottle. The wine is ready to drink immediately. Fresh and fruity, this wine is not aged in wood.

Trebbiano Spoletino is a typical variety of the territory that extends between Montefalco, Trevi and Spoleto; perhaps the name derives from “Trebium”, Trevi in Latin.

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.

Not only great reds are born from the Sagrantino grape. Vinified in white it is an original base for Scacciadiavoli 's Spumante Brut Classic Method. The characteristics of the wine are revealed in new forms: the aromas are fresh and delicate and the tannins, typical of Sagrantino, participate in the structure by joining the bubbles.

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.

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

Produced since 1990 exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, it is, in a certain sense, the "alter ego" of Cervaro: together they represent the two different expressions of the complex and refined soul of Castello della Sala. The 4 hectares of vineyards from which it is produced are located at over 400 meters above sea level on calcareous soils rich in fossils with sands of sedimentary origin dating back to the Pliocene.

The Orvieto Classico Superiore San Giovanni della Sala di Antinori is born in vineyards located in the land surrounding the Castello della Sala, in Umbria. It is produced with Grechetto, Procanico, Pinot Bianco and Viognier grapes, harvested entirely by hand starting from the second week of September. Fermentation takes place separately by variety, with a part of the grapes subjected to a short cold maceration and the others pressed directly, in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 16 ° C. The wine ages on its lees for a few months in view of the subsequent assembly and bottling.

The Muffato del Castello della Sala, one of the estates of the Marchesi Antinori , is a bright and persuasive sweet wine. On the nose it is a wine that reveals itself of great aromatic and gustatory intensity, with hints of candied fruit, honey, iodized and almost marine hints on a citrus hint. On the palate it is enveloping and the botrytizing process gives a sweet sensation well integrated into that of freshness that emerges after the sip

Dedicated to Donna Plautilla A. ancestor of our family who lived in the second half of the eighteenth century (1759-1809) and dedicated to all the women of Montefalco, the true guardians of the Sagrantino Passito tradition. The women were entrusted with the task of detaching the Sagrantino grapes from the stalks, the “sbacatura” for the subsequent vinification and it was a job that was done by the fire after dinner, in the cold evenings of late autumn. Images of true poetry for a wine that is itself poetry. The harvest of Sagrantino destined for drying takes place in the first days of October and is very meticulous. The clusters are treated with extreme care because they absolutely must not break, they are placed in small boxes whose bottom is covered with a layer of vine leaves (vine leaves). Only suitable bunches are harvested, those with the most sparse berries that can better withstand the long drying period on the “Camorcanne”, racks where the bunches are placed side by side, without overlapping. The drying can last even more than two months, depending on the weather conditions. Once the right sugar content is reached, the vinification is the same as for other wines: temperature control, frequent pumping over, racking, soft pressing and racking. The final wine yield is very low, only 35% of the initial quantity of grapes. Unlike the Rosso and the dry Sagrantino it does not age in wood, but in steel barrels for a period of thirty-six months. Then follows the refinement in the bottle. The bottles produced are all numbered by hand.

Sweet wine obtained by drying grapes on racks. It is the traditional version of Sagrantino. The name derives from the Latin sacer: sacred wine consumed during the feasts of the Christian tradition.

Intense ruby red and full to the eye. The nose firstly gives deep notes of dark fruit, such as blackberries, sour cherries and black cherries, overripe and jam, then followed by references to eucalyptus, tamarind, cinnamon, myrtle and cocoa. The palate is all played between sweetness and tannins, to prove balanced, full-bodied and with a long persistence. Perfect with chocolate and excellent with fruit tarts, it is also ideal sipped alone as a meditation wine.

This sweet wine has a unique style. The red color is impenetrable, the scent evokes blackberries, dried fruit and cinnamon, the taste is of a singular balance. In fact, the dense texture of tannins imprisons acidity and sweetness and everything is confused, creating a gustatory sensation of harmonious fullness. It is thanks to the drying of Sagrantino grapes on racks that such a concentration is obtained. Originally Sagrantino grapes were used only for the making of this sweet wine, drunk on the occasion of religious ceremonies in the villages of the area.

Scimella is the ancient name of the land from which the grapes come, destined since ancient times to be a vineyard due to its particular position. The grape harvest to be allocated to “Scimella” DOC Montefalco Rosso is done in the last days of September or early October. They are harvested in the right proportions 60% Sangiovese, Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and Barbera and 15% native grape variety. Harvested in 20Kg crates, the grapes are taken to the cellar and immediately pressed and left to ferment for about twelve / fifteen days, in steel barrels at a controlled temperature that never exceeds 25 ° C. Once the fermentation is over, the phase of drawing off and pressing follows for the separation of the liquid from the skins. The wine thus passes into a steel barrel for the first decantation and after subsequent decanting, at the beginning of spring, it passes into a large French oak barrel until March of the following year. Put back in steel barrels, in the month of May, after eighteen months, it is ready to obtain its suitability to become the DOC Montefalco Rosso and to be bottled. Once in the bottle, "Scimella" refines for a further period of six months before being sold. Intense ruby red in color, it has a complex aroma, with hints of flowers, red fruit and spices. It goes well with structured first courses, tasty red and white meats. Serve at 18-20 ° C

Wine of excellent workmanship. Intense ruby red color, ample, elegant perfume with hints of cherry, soft and voluminous flavor. In the ancient tradition of the territory of Montefalco, after selecting the grapes for the production of Montefalco Sagrantino, all the other red varieties were harvested for the composition of a fresher and easy-to-match wine. Scacciadiavoli takes inspiration from this tradition and perfects it by adding that touch that makes this wine even more lovable.
