Description

Arnaldo Caprai is a leading producer of Montefalco Sagrantino, a grape variety that has been cultivated in Umbria for nearly 500 years, but almost disappeared in the 1960s. Arnaldo’s son, Marco Caprai, has led efforts to revitalize the Montelfalco Sagrantino variety which today it is regarded as one of Italy’s noble grapes. He discusses the history and characteristics of this grape and shares two vintages of Arnaldo Caprai’s Spinning Beauty 100% Montefalco Sagrantino. www.arnaldocaprai.it
