Big, ripe fruit and dried strawberry characterize the bouquet of the 2016 Montefalco Sagrantino. Yes, it's a bit jammy and sweet, but this bold red wine with a 15.5% alcohol content and a full-bodied style comes through with baking spice, cinnamon, tobacco and cured leather. Some 10,000 bottles were made. Drink it up to the 10-year mark.

Fratelli Pardi's 2010 Montefalco Sagrantino is a dark and opulent red wine from central Italy. The bouquet brings forth power and determination, but the clarity of aromas is less focused when tasted side-to-side with the top shelf Montefalco Sagrantino Sacrantino. You do get thick pulses of plum, blackberry, spice, tobacco and leather. The wine is infused with oak-driven spice and barbecue smoke.

The 2009 Montefalco Sagrantino opens with an inky dark, impenetrable appearance and shows confident aromas of black fruit, Christmas spice, nutmeg and fresh tobacco. The wine is still in its younger years, but it shows the firm astringency and bright acidity for a careful cellar future. Drink: 2015-2022. Cantina Fratelli Pardi delivers a spectacular lineup of traditional wines that faithfully reflect the elegance and grace of soft hills of Montefalco, Umbria.

The estate’s 2004 Montefalco Sagrantino is made in a plush style redolent of spices, toasted oak, chocolate and ripe dark fruit. It is a beautiful, polished wine with gorgeous balance and sweet, elegant tannins for Sagrantino. As generous as this wine is, it does lack some varietal typicity. The Sagrantino spent 18 months in French oak. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2019. The Pardi family has been making wine since 1919, but only began estate-bottling with the 2003 vintage. These are richly-textured, modern-styled wines of notable class. Pardi will be an estate to keep a close eye on as the wines show a lot of potential.
