Montefalco Rosso is the less austere cousin of Sagrantino di Montefalco and although this blend of Sangiovese, Sagrantino and Cabernet Sauvignon offers all kinds of spice, cherry notes and firm tannins, it is too masked by heavy oak tones. The wine exhibits aromas that recall burnt wood or toast, making those oak tones too sharp and obvious to score higher.
