The wine region of Todi
Recent Umbrian DOC (2010) south-west of Perugia around Todi. Grechetto is the autochthonous signature (≥50% in white, ≥85% monovarietal), cited by Pliny the Elder: dry and structured with intense citrus, white flowers, stone fruits, almond and mineral-saline hint. Sangiovese (≥50%) in red — cherry, raspberry, plum and floral-spicy touch, fine tannins. Supple Merlot as complement and monovarietal.
The wine region of Umbria
"Green heart" of Italy, cradle of Sagrantino: exceptional tannic red in Sagrantino di Montefalco DOCG, dense and concentrated with notes of blackberry, candied plum, liquorice, spice and leather, powerful tannins and long ageing. Suppler Sangiovese in blends, Cabernet and Merlot in Torgiano DOCG. Orvieto whites based on Grechetto and Trebbiano, full and almondy, from dry to sweet Muffato. ~13,000 ha between Tuscany and Lazio.
The word of the wine: Draft liquor (champagne)
After blending, the wine is bottled with a liqueur de tirage (a mixture of sugar and wine) and a yeast (selected yeasts). The yeast attacks the sugar and creates carbon dioxide. The fermentation, which lasts about two months, is prolonged by an ageing period (15 months minimum in total). The bottle is capped (some rare vintages are capped with a staple and a cork).
