Wɪɴᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ ᴅᴀᴛɪɴɢ ᴛᴏᴜʀ ɪɴ Mᴏɴᴛᴇғᴀʟᴄᴏ 🍷
We visited about 14 wineries in 2.5 days plus an afternoon of truffle hunting and a visit to the San Francesco museum in Montefalco. This was not my first visit to Montefalco, I go there at least once every year. It was awesome to do a tour with people who visited for the first time, it gave me new inouts and perspectives. ➡️ Sagrantino and its producers have taken huge leaps forward in the last few years to consolidate their "brand" and communicate how Sagrantino wines gave changed. Many think of very tannic wines that are heavy and difficult to drink. Sagrantino wines have changed and are now showing how their strength lies in the tannins when their are well managed. I will talk more about this soon. ➡️ I also see an energy among the producers that pushes them to do more as a group

Mamoiada, the home of Cannonau in Sardinia
I was invited to the Mamoiada vintners' associations yearly event earlier this year in June, which was a great opportunity to learn more about their wines. The Mamoiada vintners are on the move...🍇 • Several younger vintners have started up by taking over the family vineyards or wineries during the last few years. • Vintners who only made bulk wine in the past, have started to bottle their wines too. • Most of them, if not all, are organic, even if not certified, and many are also doing wild fermentation with indigenous yeast, etc. Have you tasted any of their wines❓ Read my article on www.grapevineadventures.com #grapevineadventures
