Goretti Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG 2014

Theirs is a story that is made from love; love for the Umbrian hills, love for quality and love for the magic that turns grapes into wine. Their story began with a dream that is very much alive today; to create excellent wine that is respectful of the land it comes from.
