The Story

Our Montevero is our flagship wine, a Cuvée blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot.

We can guarantee this by taking the utmost care and being scrupulously selective when harvesting by hand.

Wine Information

The very rainy winter of 2011 filled up the water reserve before the beginning of the season. Budbreak and flowering were about a week earlier than in 2010 due to higher temperatures.

Written Notes

Intense garnet red colour. Very elegant nose with aroma reminiscent of vanilla, grated dark chocolate, ripe black cherries and hints of blackcurrants. On the palate very elegant, discreet spiciness and slightly balmy flavour, ripe and balanced tannins. 

  • 93p

Deep black ink with red velvet and dark cherry on the rim, the wine reveals on the nose complexity and depth translated in layers of fruit, spices and wood aromas with touches likes blueberry and cassis, maple syrup, clay, cinnamon, cigar box and mocha that evolves over time. On the palate, the wine shows a soft but structured entrance evolving on a silky mouthfeel with a full and round palate layered with dark fruit and powerful structure. A vintage with a strong personality and a sense of the place.
