As in many other areas of Central Italy, in Montefalco too, Sangiovese can boast a deep-rooted tradition in terms of use and diffusion. A variety that over the centuries has always been used in blends with other vines, those that the farmer had available in his rows. A habit that has led to today's regulations, whose share of other grapes, in addition to Sangiovese and Sagrantino (maximum 20%), is at the discretion of the individual wineries.
Winemaking Montefalco Rosso DOC Pomontino
Pomontino is born from a careful whole-berry vinification and spontaneous fermentation of grapes from vineyards of about 15 years of age. It is then left to mature for about a year in large Slavonian oak barrels before a further 6 months in the bottle. Unfiltered.
