Còlpetrone Rosso di Montefalco DOC

Còlpetrone Rosso di Montefalco is the base wine of the Còlpetrone winery in Umbria, owned by the Tenute del Cerro group in Guado Cattaneo in the province of Perugia, this wine is produced with Sangiovese, Sagrantino and Merlot. The grapes are harvested and vinified separately, once harvested manually, they arrive in a cellar for pressing, alcohol fermentation takes place in thermoconditioned steel tanks and maceration favors the sale of aromatic and polyphenolic compounds from skins to Còlpetrone Rosso di Montefalco which is greatly enriched. After the end of this process, the Còlpetrone Rosso di Montefalco is separated from the skins and transferred into French oak barriques where it remains for 12 months before blending and bottling.
