Tasting Notes
Intense perfumes of exotic fruit and yellow peach, floral notes of freesia and hawthorn, pleasing chalkiness on the finish. Full, fresh taste with a long persistence.
WINERY
The family operation began in 1971 when textiles
entrepreneur Arnaldo Caprai purchased 12.5 acres in
Montefalco. In 1988, ownership passed on to Arnaldo’s
son, Marco, who began the project to cultivate the
promotion of the grape that has been growing in the
Montefalco region for more than 400 years: Sagrantino.
Today, the winery is the leading producer of top quality
Sagrantino di Montefalco, a wine produced exclusively
from this native variety. In addition to its commitment to
quality, Arnaldo Caprai is recognized for its dedication
to environmental, economic and social sustainability,
as well as being champions for the wines of Umbria.

WINE
Grechetto, part of the Greco group of grapes, is mostly
planted in central Italy and championed in Umbria. Often
found in blends, the Grecante is made of 100% Grechetto
and reflects the pure varietal characteristics through the
terroir.
TASTING NOTES
The 2023 Grecante Grechetto has strong scents of exotic
fruit, lime zest, hawthorn, blanched almond, and white
blossom. The wine offers a well-balanced profile, combining
the sweetness of exotic fruits with the tanginess of lime
zest. The hawthorn adds a unique floral touch, while the
blanched almond provides a subtle nutty undertone. The
white blossom notes contribute to the overall aromatic
complexity. It finishes with a pleasant chalky and salty taste,
leaving a refined impression on the palate.
