Antonelli San Marco wine makers

Antonelli, located in the prestigious San Marco sub-zone, one of the most suitable areas for wines from native varietals, is beyond question a benchmark in Montefalco. Of the estate's many hectares, 50 are cultivated for wine starting with Sagrantino, though Montefalco Rosso (where Sangiovese is the star) is also a favourite. Particularly in recent years there has been solid investment in whites, dominated by Trebbiano Spoletino. Elegance, finesse and a great territorial identity unite the whole range.

Montefalco Rosso Riserva '15

Their selection put in an excellent performance every year, especially their reds. We were impressed by the complexity, finesse and elegance of their Montefalco Rosso Riserva ’15, a graceful, deep wine equipped with perfect tannins and exemplary acidity. On the nose it’s a triumph of fragrances, from fruity and flowery to spices and herbaceous. Pair with some classic fettuccine bolognese and polenta.
