Notes on the Wine
A product of deep clay and a magnificent southern exposure, this wine is made from grapes of exceptional maturity. The resulting wine is aged in French oak and refined for many months in the bottle, and is not marketed until four years after harvest. A muscular and powerful red, incredibly complex, huge, with superb tannins and longevity.
Notes on the Producer
Tabarrini is one of the best-known and most respected artisan wine producers in Montefalco with its vineyards and wine cellar located in and around Turrita. Giampaolo – who represents the fourth generation of the farmers of the Tabarrini family – is a passionate and eccentric winemaker and master and architect of this uncompromising and developing project. A great visionary who remains true to himself while striving for change, Giampaolo has, since taking over his parents’ farm in the late ‘90s, transformed it into the extraordinary success story it is today. The company that bears his name reflects his character – constantly moving in search of perfection and fresh challenges, with a dynamism that’s focused on the future but with the confidence of being founded on strong roots – on their own land, while upholding the Tabarrini family values passed through the generations, as well as the local traditions.
