Montefalco Sagrantino Passito "Cocré"- Romanelli

A great meditation wine: intense, rare and deeply Umbrian.

The Montefalco Sagrantino Passito “Cocré” is one of the most authentic and historic expressions of the Montefalco terroir. Made from 100% Sagrantino grapes, it is born from a long and patient natural drying process, an ancient practice that transforms this powerful grape variety into a sweet wine of extraordinary depth.

The name “Cocré” recalls an old family tradition: the needle used in lace-making, a symbol of patience, precision and time — the very same elements that shape this wine.
