Only 4,5 and 5,0 NJP-wines (Nenad Jelisic Points) are presented as the best vintages.

Montefalco Sagrantino (Sagrantino di Montefalco before 2009), both an Italian DOCG wine and a DOCG appellation, which is located in the Umbria wine region. The wines/appellation got DOC-status in 1979 as part of the Montefalco DOC and were later separately elevated to DOCG-status in 1992. Montefalco Sagrantino is produced as both a dry (secco) and a sweet (passito) wine. In both cases, it must consist of 100% Sangiovese. The dry wine (secco) must be aged for a minimum of 37 months, of which at least 12 months in oak barrels. While the sweet wine (passito) must also be aged for a minimum of 37 months, but there is no requirement for oak barrel aging. The vineyards are located at an altitude between 220 and 472 meters above sea level. The appellation has both a subcontinental and Mediterranean climate. Summers are cool to lukewarm (between 18°C and 23°C) while winters are mild (between 4°C and 6°C). On average, it rains between 750 mm and 1,300 mm per year (comparatively, it rains between 600 mm and 700 mm per year in Sweden) and the number of hours of sunshine is between 2,000 and 2,400 hours per year (comparatively, the number of sunshine hours is between 1,500 and 1,600 in Sweden.). The appellation has 415 hectares. The average yield is a low 25 hl/ha. Due to its very thick skins, Sagrantino produces wines with some of the highest tannin levels of all grapes in the world, and often surpasses Cabernet Sauvignon and Nebbiolo. The combination, the very thick-skinned Sagrantino-grape and the long aging in oak barrels, gives powerful, spicy and very austere wines with a very high tannin content. This gives the wines excellent aging properties. A few years of bottle aging is necessary because the wines are very astringent when they are young, but they become rounder and more balanced with aging. Sagrantino-wines usually reach full maturity 10 to 15 years after harvest, and can be aged for more than 30 years. (2026-05)
