The 6-pack case contains two bottles each of Arnaldo-Caprai's 2003, 2004, and 2005 Sagrantino di Montefalco "25 Anni". Gambero Rosso ratings and reviews are noted below:
2003:
Two Glasses, Gambero Rosso: "The Sagrantino 25 Anni '03 is a very fine wine but possibly a touch overextracted and over-opulent. So it was 'only' a finalist... (2007)"
2004:
Three Glasses, Gambero Rosso: "2004, with its kinder, more classic weather patterns, has again served up to 25 Anni fans a fabulous edition of the wine that, despite ever more intense competition, still sets the benchmark for Sagrantino di Montefalco. Truly monumental, ever fascinating, it flaunts dense fragrances of wild blackberry leather and tobacco leaf, which flow seamlessly onto a massive but cleanly etched palate. Vibrant depth, powerful tannins and superb finesse combine to ensure that yet another year will be laid down among the numerous earlier vintages to flaunt its formidable qualities for years to come. (2008)"
2005:
Three Glasses, Gambero Rosso: "This wine is so rich and complex as to be almost unapproachable, at least until it has had a few months in bottle. But as the years pass, it reveals all its power and energy, eventually reaching heady heights of elegance... The '05 version is a monumental wine that needs only time. It's another of tomorrow's great classics from this territory. (2009)"
