96 points Vinous Media
The 2019 Montefalco Sagrantino Colle Grimaldesco is zesty and intense, with a burst of savory herbs and woodland berries complicated by crushed ashen stone and cedar shavings. This is a beast, silky upon entry yet with a dense wave of mineral-infused, tart blackberries that saturate as fine-grained tannins add youthful poise. It's structured and incredibly long, leaving a pleasantly bitter concentration and hints of sage that linger beneath an air of hauntingly dark inner florals and a tinge of licorice.
Our take: A classic expression of Sagrantino with quite an expressive nose of ripe blackberries, dark plum, and blood oranges accented by dried herbs, pepper and subtle sandalwood/cocoa spice. On the palate it’s full-bodied and structured, with firm yet integrated tannins, vibrant acidity and layered flavors of dark fruit, licorice and savory spice, finishing long with mineral persistence and a touch of sage-like complexity.
