Description
 
Chiusa is made from Antonellis paramount Sagrantino di Montefalco, made from the best selection massale grafts on rootstock. This wine is stored in lightly toasted barrels for 6 months, then in oak barrels for 15 months, with clarification in cement vats for 3 months, and lastly, aged in the bottle for two years. This is a very tannic and rustic wine, that will pair ideally with red meats and heartier dishes. Deep ruby. Explosive aromas of sweet, ripe red cherry, chocolate-covered plum, violet, and cappuccino. Enters rich and suave, then turns somewhat more austere, offering lovely purity to its red fruit and sweet baking spice flavors. Displays lovely balance for a Sagrantino with the Antonelli-signature silky tannins and great length. Very well done.
