A long-standing vision, a family history, and a clear and innovative mission. These are the simple, straightforward ideas of the Farchioni family, whose wines capture the essence of their enthusiasm and give it a physical form in the name “Terre de la Custodia”.
“Custodere” is a living verb full of history and affection; in this respect, the work put in over many years has resulted in a range of wines with a particular flavor that is distinctive of their area of origin and are accessible on international markets. We are in the Montefalco area, which for many years has served as the birthplace of a culture expertly preserved in Terre de la Custodia products.
The Montefalco Sagrantino that we tasted is a specific illustration of this. It begins with its entry into the glass, where the chromatic force of its vivid crimson encourages the nose to explore the depth of a genuine pride of Italian enology, the Sagrantino of Montefalco.
Unsurprisingly, the family has named this interesting wine “Exubera,” which describes its unique scents of red fruit and spices that have been skillfully blended from the vineyard to the cellar.
The flavor is completed by the individuality of the vine, which provides a thrilling depth in the tongue. Full, velvety, and with enough length to be the table’s main attraction.
Enjoy this wine with baked pasta and fine roasts, not to mention the pleasant company it provides after dinner, especially with family.
