2020 Caprai, Arnaldo - Montefalco Sagrantino Collepiano 25th Anniversary (750ml)
Arnaldo Caprai is the definitive name in Sagrantino di Montefalco, the producer credited with putting this ancient, fiercely tannic Umbrian grape on the world map. First produced with the 1993 vintage to mark the winery's 25th anniversary, 25 Anni remains the estate's top flagship cuvée, born from careful clonal selection of the best Sagrantino fruit from vines aged 25 to 30 years. The 2020 shows a dark, brooding character that slowly unfurls in the glass, with balsamic spice, cocoa, and mentholated herbs joining dark berries, dark flowers, walnuts, and a hint of balsam. Full-bodied and youthfully dense, with muscular yet refined tannins, refreshing acidity, and a long, polished tobacco finish. Best from 2027 through 2045, this is Sagrantino at its most serious and ambitious.
