Paolo Bea 2018 Montefalco Rosso Riserva 'Pipparello'

60% Sangiovese, 25 % Montepulciano, and 15% Sagrantino

Montefalco, Umbria, Italy

The Pipparello vineyard is a hilltop site in Montefalco at 1300 feet above sea level. The soil is clay and gravel. The vines in the Pipparello vineyard are a minimum of 20 years old. Harvest takes place normally during the middle of October. 

Swirling and heady with camphor, tar, tobacco, and kalamata olives. Dense and robust, this will age wonderfully for years to come.
