Red of great polyphenolic richness. Deep and intense purple red, with a complex aroma of red fruits, morello cherry, currant and raspberry, and delicate notes of sweet tobacco and cocoa, and more officinal herbs in the finish. The structure is dense, with rich but harmonious tannins, of great thickness; the fruit is supported by a fresh acidity, and the persistent aftertaste is of jam.

Sagrantino is one of the oldest native Umbrian grapes, with characteristics of great polyphenolic complexity: a wild horse that must be known and tamed with a correct viticultural practice, so that it can speak, like other Lungarotti wines, a harmonious and balanced language. Legend has it that Frederick II of Swabia on the road to Castel del Monte stopped to hunt in the Montefalco area with his falcon, when the animal belonging to the rare and precious Saccr breed fell ill and was treated with a medicine based on wine. local that since then has been called Sagrantino, from the name of the emperor's falcon. The DOC in Montefalco was recognized in 1979 also thanks to the work of Giorgio Lungarotti.
