Sagrantino di Montefalco is one of those wines I wish I could get people to try more often. These rich, dark, spicey, unique wines are only made on 400 acres of land in Umbria (around the town of Montefalco) which is one reason not too many people have tried one. Join me today for a tasting of a major producer in the region as I talk about the grape, the wines, and some food pairings! Read more
