Antano’s single-vineyard 2004 Montefalco Sagrantino Colleallodole is a reference-point wine for the region, not to mention it is a thrill to drink! It bursts from the glass with a compelling array of violets, vibrant dark cherry and mint flavors, showing superb clarity and definition from start to finish. It has more than enough stuffing to continue to develop positively in bottle for another 10-15 years. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2022.
Antano is located in the Montefalco appellation in Umbria. Proprietor Francesco Antano works with low yields to make pure, unadulterated wines loaded with personality that express the inner beauty of this unique region. The wines typically see extended periods of aging in cask lasting up to 30 months for the Sagrantinos and the Rosso Riserva. The top selections are the single-vineyard Sagrantino Colleallodole and the Montefalco Rosso Riserva (Sagrantino and Sangiovese). These big, powerful wines are essential drinking for readers who want to learn what Sagrantino is all about. They will offer their greatest pleasure when served alongside fully-flavored dishes that can handle the wines’ imposing structures.
