Tasting Note

Intense ruby red in colour. To the nose rich and powerful, ethereal and very complex. Typically characterised by notes of fruit and aromatic herbs, featuring citrus, cherry, wild berry, mint and oregano. On the palate this wine is very structured, with firm and integrated tannins. A wine that is best expressed with a long bottle ageing.

Product Notes

The Antonelli San Marco Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG is a standout Italian wine delivering a rich, robust flavour. With undertones of dark fruit, tobacco, and spice, it beautifully embodies the intense character typical of the Sagrantino grape. Aged for 25 months in oak barrels, it boasts an unparalleled complexity and depth. It exhibits a full-bodied palate, rife with chewy tannins and balanced acidity, showcasing an impressive structure. The wine's ruby red colour is captivating while hints of vanilla and earth resonate in its lingering finish. It's a stellar accompaniment to hearty meats and mature cheeses.

About the Winery

Antonelli San Marco

Established in the heart of the Montefalco wine region, Antonelli San Marco has been adored by wine connoisseurs for generations. This splendid winery enjoys a rich heritage that's deeply intertwined with the history and agricultural traditions of the area.

Covering an impressive 170 hectares, Antonelli San Marco is made up of vineyards and olive groves, where modern viticulture techniques are married with traditional wine-making craftsmanship. The revered San Marco vineyard is a jewel in the crown of the Montefalco wine region.

Antonelli San Marco is deeply committed to the practice of organic farming, maintaining the belief that superior wines can only be crafted from healthy and well-nourished vines. No chemical fertilisers or pesticides are used on these vines; instead, natural compost is used to nourish the soil, with the goal of creating healthier and more resilient plants. These efforts have yielded a line of wines that are as natural and pure as the lands from which they are produced.

At Antonelli San Marco, the elegance and character of each wine is painstakingly coaxed from the grapes by skilled winemakers. They are aged in the winery’s cellars located in St. Marco’s Palazzo, adding to their distinctive profile. The end result is a range of wines that echo the pure flavours and natural richness of the Umbrian soil, offering a taste experience that is truly outstanding.

Whilst it is the Sagrantino wines that have made Antonelli San Marco famous, their production isn't limited to this alone. They also create exquisite Montefalco Rosso and white wines that have earned accolades from expert taste testers around the world.

Visitors to the winery can enjoy a guided tour of the vineyards, concluding with a tasteful degustation session of the estate's finest wines and locally made olive oils. Whether you’re a serious wine enthusiast or simply enjoy a leisurely glass from time to time a visit to Antonelli San Marco is sure to be, an unforgettable experience.
