Sagrantino

Collenottolo 2017 is a single-vineyard Sagrantino from Montefalco, Umbria, grown at altitude and farmed organically by Tenuta Bellafonte. Founded by Peter Heilbron, the estate focuses on refined, site-driven expressions of Sagrantino, fermented with native yeasts and aged in large oak casks. The 2017 vintage, warm and dry, emphasizes the grape’s natural power while keeping definition and balance. A structured, long-lived Sagrantino that reflects both vineyard and traditional cellar work.

.

Tenuta Bellafonte was founded in Montefalco by the late Peter Heilbron, who chose to focus on Sagrantino and on the specific conditions of the area’s hillside vineyards. The estate has been farmed organically from the beginning, with a clear emphasis on balance and restraint. Bellafonte has become known for producing some of the most refined interpretations of Sagrantino, shaped by careful farming and a measured, long-term approach rather than power or scale.
