Bocale Montefalco Rosso, Umbria, Italy 2020

Description

Wine Enthusiast 90

"Sour plum intertwines with rosemary, flowers and sour cherry on the palate, presenting solid fruit flavors. The wine is really tasty, with mixed spice and fine tannins that bring a touch of underbrush earthiness." 

Grape Bottle Notes

Bocale’s Montefalco Rosso 2020 is a testament to Umbrian winemaking—elegant, structured, and full of character. The nose opens with dark cherries, blackberries, and a touch of dried herbs, followed by subtle notes of spice and earth.

On the palate, the balance is impressive. Bright acidity keeps the ripe red fruit fresh, while firm tannins and a hint of oak add depth. There’s a lingering finish with traces of tobacco and dark chocolate, making it a wine that evolves beautifully in the glass.

This vintage is approachable now but has the backbone to age. It’s a perfect match for rustic Italian dishes, grilled meats, or aged cheeses. A well-crafted Montefalco Rosso that delivers quality and authenticity.
