This is one of two single-vineyard expressions at the top of the Paolo Bea portfolio. The 2017 Montefalco Sagrantino Pagliaro opens to brooding dark fruit and depth. The wine's complexity comes forth with blackcurrant, spice, earth, cola and medicinal herb. There is a lot to admire in the bouquet that shifts fluidly with each swirl of the glass. Despite a hefty 15% alcohol content, the wine is surprising supple and smooth. - Monica Larner
