Arnaldo Caprai Montefalco Rosso DOC 2018

WinesCritic.com

Harmonious and balanced... it shows bite and character in the fresh notes of wild strawberries, red plums, black cherries and pressed blueberries. Medium body, round tannins and a graceful finish of luminous workmanship. The beauty of the red Montefalco passes from its pleasantness.

Falstaff

Sparkling dark ruby. Appealing nose with notes of sour cherry and blackberry, very clear. Lots of juicy fruit in the beginning, opens with grippy, well-integrated tannins, salty and with good drinking flow.

Andreas Larsson, Tasted

Medium deep ruby red colour. Ripe red fruit, sweet cherry, wild herbs, pepper and a dash of wood. Ample palate with plenty of structure, rich in tannin that are well rounded despite its relative youth, nice layers of digest fruit with crushed cherry, plum and a good dose of spice on the finish. A long and powerful finish.

James Suckling

Aromas of blackberries, blueberries, bay leaves and baking spices. It’s medium-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins and a chalky texture. Flavorful, savory finish.

James MAGAZINE

Faceted aromas of black cherry, spices and light smoky; fresh and juicy mouth, harmonious development without stiffness, good complexity of flavor.

Mad og Monopolet

Glimrende italiener på et mix af lokale og franske druer. Næsen er fyldt med noter af røde bær, blommer, rosmarin, rosenblade og et lille hint af røg. I munden er den livlig og ungdommelig, hvor smag af frisk frugt er mest fremtrædende - tanninerne gør den fremragende til en omgang osso buco eller risotto med svampe. 1 stk 219,95 / BEDSTE PRIS v/ 6 fl. 119,95

Houlberg

I næsen er der sødsyrlig tobak, saltlakrids, kaffe og våde fade, mens frugten er overvældende med sorte kirsebær, blommer figner samt dadler … har virkelig en omfavnende og fadtung varme med kanel og vanilje. Vi er i comfortzone land … meget fyldig og småtyk. Uha hvor det smager blødt og faktisk en smule atypisk for en Montefalco Rosso. Den smager nemlig uventet noget federe og sødere end forventet, har noget kirsebærmarmelade og modsat Caprais vildt tanninrige Sagrantino vine, så er tanninerne her også bløde og bøjelige, hvilket giver en venlig, rund, småfed og meget imødekommende vin. 91 point. Forhandles af Supervin, hvor en flaske koster 219,95 kr., mens prisen er 119,95 kr. ved køb af 6 flasker.

Antonio Galloni

Here I’m finding ripe black cherries laced with peppery herbs, as notes of sweet white smoke and purple flowers evolve in the glass. On the palate, silky textures coast across a core of juicy acids, delivering ripe red and blue fruits, and hints of fine tannin slowly collect upon the senses. The finish is long and youthfully structured, resonating on a mix of wild berries and sweet spice. The 2018 Montefalco Rosso from Arnaldo Caprai is cool-toned and really quite pretty, while keeping its fruit front and center. Very nice.
