Tenuta Castelbuono Umbria, Italy Tenuta Trentino Castelbuono Tuscany Umbria TENUTE LUNELLI TENUTA CASTELBUONO UMBRIA, ITALY Carapace Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG Lampante Montefalco Rosso Riserva DOC Ziggurat Montefalco Rosso DOC The Lunelli Family Marcello, Alessandro, Camilla & Matteo In the 1980s, after more than a hundred years’ experience gained in the production of their legendary Ferrari Trentodoc Sparkling Wines, the Lunelli family decided to link their own name to a range of hand-crafted still wines produced from grapes grown in the family’s estate vineyards on the slopes of the mountains surrounding Trento. The Tenute Lunelli range includes three wineries in three different regions of Italy: Tenuta Margon in Trentino, Tenuta Podernovo in Tuscany and Tenuta Castelbuono in Umbria. All three Tenuta Lunelli estates have a shared philosophy founded upon: respect for the diversity, identity and origin of each territory, a holistic approach to Sustainable & Organic environmental protocols, and Patience practiced as a virtue. At Castelbuono, heirloom vines are preserved and new vines are cultivated through a structured clonal selection protocol aptly named the “Patriarchs Project.” The winery is the realization of a dream for world renowned sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro and the architect Giorgio Pedrotti. The huge dome patinaed in copper, is textured with a hieroglyphic like pattern of grooves and cracks, inspired by the carapace of an ancient tortoise’s shell. An accompanying sculptural element in the shape of a towering red arrow (called the Lampante) pierces the earth to highlight the winery structure, and pay homage to land that was once an Etrus. The wines of Tenuta Castelbuono have been certified organic since 2014.

  • Montefalco Sagrantino - Entering a New Chapter
    Montefalco Sagrantino - Entering A New Chapter Tom HylandContributor Food & Drink I write about wine (and sometimes food) from around the world. Sagrantino Vineyards at Tenuta Bellafonte, Bevagna Photo ©Tom Hyland Montefalco Sagrantino is among the richest, most powerful of all Italian wines. That statement alone would believe you to think that it is also one of the most critically praised and beloved of all the country’s wines. But that simply is not the situation. However, thanks to a renewed effort by area producers, Montefalco Sagrantino is enjoying a renaissance, as vintners are crafting more refined offerings that display a new era for this wine and potentially, more attention from critics and consumers alike. The name of the wine derives from the town of Montefalco in central Umbria; Sagrantino is the only variety that can be used to make the wine. This gives the wine a unique identity, much like Barolo that is produced entirely with Nebbiolo, or Brunello di Montalcino, crafted exclusively from Sangiovese. However, as Sagrantino is one of the most tannic varieties in the world - arguably the most tannic of all the major varieties in Italy - this accounts for a problematic image of Montefalco Sagrantino being a wine that is too bitter and rough, a wine that lacks charm and elegance. It’s an image that area producers have battled for years, and now they’re doing something about it. Maturing the wine in large casks known as grandi botti is one way to lessen the tannic identity of the wine, although some producers that use barriques for aging have also found ways to craft more elegant wines.

  • Scacciadiavoli Montefalco Sagrantino Passito Tech Sheet
    Scacciadiavoli Montefalco Sagrantino Passito COUNTRY ABV Italy 14.5% REGION VARIETALS Wine Umbria Sagrantino Spectator APPELLATION 90 PTS DOCG Montefalco 2012 Sagrantino Passito WINERY Founded in 1884, Cantina Scacciadiavoli, “cast Antonio out the devils”, takes its name from a 19th Galloni century exorcist who lived in the small village 90 PTS bordering the vineyard. He was known to use the wines while performing his exorcist ritual of 2012 ridding poor souls of demons. The estate was built as a complex and modern wine “factory,” which today spans 130 hectares, 35 of which are vineyards. The vines cover a hill in the heart of the Montefalco appellation, divided between the three provinces of Gualdo Cattaneo, Giano dell’Umbria, and Montefalco. The winery consists of four vertical levels built into the hill, allowing for the use of gravity throughout production. The grapes arrive from the vineyards directly at the highest level then move down to the second level by gravity flow to be fermented and vinified in wood or stainless steel vats. The ground and underground floors are used to age the wines. The Pambuffetti family has owned and operated Scacciadiavoli since 1954 and produces annually approximately 250,000 bottles. CULTIVATION In the past the Sagrantino Passito was the only wine produced from the Sagrantino varietal, and TASTING NOTES it was drunk during religious ceremonies in the A great way to end a meal… big red lovers will enjoy villages of the Montefalco area.

  • Sagrantino: Short Story of a Celebrity
    Sagrantino: short story of a celebrity Montefalco is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, a treasure chest of just over five thousand souls, known throughout the world for the production of the fine wine from Sagrantino grapes. ©The Wolf Post The hills of the village are planted with vineyards and olive trees in a unique play of colors. Inside the ancient walls, churches and artistic works of inestimable value make Montefalco a place to visit, not only for its rich history of wine. ©The Wolf Post At one time, in medieval times and, probably even earlier, in the village, called the “railing of Umbria”, enclosed by fourteenth-century walls, the cultivation of grapes was practiced within the city walls. A very ancient production, which can be found in the work of Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia. Pliny pointed out that the Itriola grape was grown in the areas of Mevania (today’s city of Bevagna, included in the production area of ​ Sagrantino di Montefalco) and in the Piceno area. Despite these testimonies, it is difficult to establish the exact origin of the Sagrantino grape. The most accredited hypothesis indicates the introduction of the vine around the 14th-15th centuries by the Franciscan friars, returning from their prayer trips to Asia Minor. © Consorzio Tutela Vini Montefalco From the moment in which the cultivation of grapes began in Montefalco, it became the fulcrum of the local economy. For this reason, specific laws were instituted for the protection of wine production, as evidenced by the documents preserved in the Municipal Historical Archives of Montefalco.
