Montefalco Rosso is a wine made from Sangovisi grapes. More obscure
is the wine named and made from the grape Sangrantino. Caprai is one
of the found fathers in the production of this wine. He has the
premier Sangrantino vineyard and separate bottles and labels "25 anni"
which is a constant 3 beaker winner..(even in 94&96).

He also bottles a slightly lesser, Sangrantino di Montelfalco.
