Paolo Bea Montefalco Rosso Riserva Pipparello 2017
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.
