    Sagrantino

    This is 100% Sagrantino — named ‘The Stranger’ in reference to the fact the grape hails from a more famous nearby wine appellation — from one single row of old vines (yes, one row!). An 8-10 day maceration makes for a less tannic, more forthcoming expression of Sagrantino, but still a wholly powerful and elegant red wine. 200-300 bottles per year, no sulfur is added and there is no filtering or fining.
