The Story

Our Montevero is our flagship wine, a Cuvée blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. It is our version of a Premier Grand Cru of Tuscany, and stands for absolute top quality and unique character. We can guarantee this by taking the utmost care and being scrupulously selective when harvesting by hand. We produce Monteverro in minimal amounts from grapes from the best plots of the steep hillside slopes that run right down to the sea. The Monteverro owes its silky structure, unmistakable complexity and the impressive richness of aroma in its taste not least to our loving care and attention to every detail.

This structured wine is layered with fruit flavors, opening with blackberry and cherry and showing blueberry and strawberry on the close. The tannins are bold, yet well-integrated. Fermented in a combination of stainless steel and French oak, the wine is aged for 24 months in 70% new, 30% second-use French oak barrels.

Written Notes

In the glass, the Monteverro 2019 wine is a deep, vibrant, and inviting ruby-red color. Its clarity and brilliance speak to the wine's purity and elegance.

The nose is a captivating and complex array of aromas that immediately engage the senses. It opens with an abundance of red and black fruits, with ripe blackberries, cherries, and plums dominating. These fruit aromas are complemented by hints of violets, lavender, and a touch of dried herbs, creating a harmonious and inviting bouquet. Subtle undertones of cedarwood, vanilla, and a hint of dark chocolate add depth and sophistication.

On the palate, Monteverro 2019 continues to impress with its remarkable depth and balance. It is a full-bodied wine that showcases an intricate interplay of flavors. The fruit profile is both lush and refined, with flavors of black cherry, raspberry, and currants taking center stage. The wine's texture is velvety, and its tannins are smooth, providing structure and a luxurious mouthfeel. Layers of complexity unfold with each sip, revealing notes of espresso, tobacco, and a touch of spice.

Monteverro 2019 boasts impeccable structure, characterized by its well-integrated tannins that impart both strength and finesse to the wine. The acidity is bright and harmonious, contributing to a long and elegant finish. This wine exemplifies a delightful balance between power and grace, showcasing a remarkable sense of harmony and potential for aging. The finish is impressively long and lingering, echoing the wine's fruit and spice notes. It leaves a lasting impression of richness, complexity, and a subtle mineral edge.

While Monteverro 2019 is undoubtedly captivating in its youth, it has the capacity to reward those with patience. This wine has the potential to age gracefully for several decades, allowing its flavors to evolve and mature.
