Bonaventura Maschio PRIME Sagrantino die Montefalco 38% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

“Prime” is a long cherished dream; the transfer of the same emotions and flavours to a distillate that only the most famous Italian wines can offer.

In order to realise this dream, collaboration was undertaken with producer friends. Step by step, the maturation of the distillates in their barrels was closely monitored and the exact same barrels that once contained the respective wines are used to preserve the original soul of each grape.

Typical Venetian packaging was chosen for the Prime to celebrate the territory as the centre of a small world of commitment, research and development.

This original spirit is made from the grapes of Sagrantino di Montefalco, an indigenous variety with a distinctive character and limited production. After harvesting, the grapes undergo a gentle pressing and controlled fermentation.

This is followed by distillation in exclusive copper stills in the shape of a boule, which are vacuum-sealed at low temperatures. The resulting brandy is then aged in small barrels previously used for Sagrantino di Montefalco, giving it its full-bodied flavour but without compromising the typical fresh quality of the original fruit. Each stage of the process is designed to preserve the primary aromas of the particularly select grapes in the best possible way.
