048 Scacciadiavoli

Wine Spectator Top 100 Sagrantino di Montefalco

The wine once used as a potion by local exorcists

Scacciadiavoli: from scacciare, to banish, and diavoli, devils

Umbria is a land of religion and magic, of San Francesco and devils, where wine was once used as a potion by exorcists: SCACCIADIAVOLI

Feel the high spirituality and rustic energy of a wine unknown to most but appreciated like few others by experts.

Founded in 1884, the Scacciadiavoli (from scacciare – to banish, and diavoli – devils) winery takes its name from an exorcist that lived in a town at the borders of the property who used the wine for his rituals.

The winery was conceived by Prince Ugo Boncompagni Ludovisi as a modern but still “human” activity: an imposing oenological complex, highly advanced for its age, and today the Pambuffetti family is baldly going on in the future centuries with the proudness of being one of the few Italian Wine Spectator’s TOP 100.

And exclusively our guest will taste exactly that wine, that vintage: the TOP 100!!!
