Tasting notes

Deep ruby ​​red color.
Very intense and complex olfactory impact with fruity, floral and spicy hints.
On the palate it is structured and elegant, with a notable gustatory-olfactory persistence.

Cellar

One hundred and seventy-five hectares in a single plot in the heart of the Montefalco DOCG zone. The soils, clayey and rich in limestone, have diverse geological origins: some deep, others rich in texture, which give the wines intense and varied nuances. The austere hills, surrounded by woods, offer an ideal microclimate for grapevines and olives. Ten hectares are dedicated to olive groves, fifty to vineyards, located on the hilltops and facing south and west. We grow primarily native varietals: Grechetto and Trebbiano Spoletino for the whites, Sangiovese and Sagrantino for the reds. At the heart of the Antonelli San Marco estate, directly beneath the old manor house, is the cellar, completely underground and designed for gravity-fed vinification, which involves the crushed grapes entering fermentation tanks and the pomace being discharged by gravity, without the use of pumps. We only use our own organic grapes to make wine, ensuring we have full control over every stage of the process. This guarantees the organic certification of both the grapes and the wines.
