Montevetrano 2019

Dubbed the "Sassicaia of the South" by Robert Parker, Montevetrano is a red wine blend composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Aglianico and Merlot grapes grown on the estates own vineyards just a few kilometres from the ancient city of Salerno in Campania. After fermentation the wine is aged for 12 months in new French oak barriques sourced from Nevers, Allier and Tronçais followed by a further 6 months refinement In bottle prior to release. Montevetrano is a rich and elegant wine. Dark ruby red in colour, it displays aromas of sour cherry, red berries and liquorice on the nose. The palate is complex and rich. Cinnamon and cardamom are well blended with mineral notes whilst the crisp acidity makes the wine long lasting on the finish. The tannins are round developing in a fruity balsamic aroma.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
