Paolo Bea Montefalco Rosso Riserva Pipparello 2019
Paolo Bea Montefalco Rosso Riserva Pipparello 2019
Paolo Bea is one of the founding fathers of natural wine in Italy, and remains arguably the greatest producer in Umbria today. On a tiny vineyard way up in the hills of central Italy, he makes tiny quantities of wines using local, organically-farmed grapes.
This sangiovese-based red is like the rebellious cousin of Brunello.
The Pipparello vineyard is a hilltop site in Montefalco at 1300 feet above sea level. The soil is clay and gravel. The vines in the Pipparello vineyard are a minimum of 20 years old. Harvest takes place normally during the middle of October. The ultimate wine is a blend of roughly 60% Sangiovese, 25% Montepulciano and 15% Sagrantino. The cuvaison extends for a period between 40 to 50 days. After the alcoholic fermentation this wine spends a year in stainless steel tanks and then two years in large oak barrels and is released after an additional year of bottle-aging.
