An affordable Umbrian red for an accomplished producer such as Arnaldo Caprai, the 2018 Montefalco Rosso is a blend of Sangiovese, Sagrantino and Merlot. The wine shows a dark ruby color but is a little closed, with difficulty to open fully. The bouquet does eventually settle on dark cherry, plum and blackberry. The tannins are soft and elegant, and that is a good achievement.
