“Caburnio” Rosso Toscana IGT 2016
Wonderfully aromatic and extremely tasty Caburnio from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Alicante with a spicy, extended finish. A true Tuscan secret tip with a great value. SUPERIORE.DE
"Rich ruby with garnet, luminous. At first spicy-peppery on the nose, then opens up on elegant graphite notes, dark fruit. On the palate with tension and delicate pressure, seems complete and coherent, juicy-young tannin, good foresight with sure development potential, but is fun even now!" Falstaff

“Monteti” Rosso Toscana IGT 2015
Very dark ruby, intensely scented with blueberry, blackberry and cassis. Deep taste with a lot of clear and dense berry fruit, smooth and long. SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling, intense ruby purple. Impressive nose with rich notes of blueberries, lilies and dark currants. Lots of fine-mesh tannin on the palate with fine melting, spreads out richly, long and creamy, has firm pressure on the final." Falstaff
"The 2015 Monteti is a blend of mostly Petit Verdot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The bouquet shows savory notes and even a touch of musky animal that is hidden within the rich density and warm-vintage concentration of this Tuscan blend. That meaty personality gives the wine the power and the latitude to pair with grilled steak or game. The finish is driven by lots of dark fruit, with pressed blackberry and plum at the front."

The wines are a clear expression of their terroir, balanced and without any showmanship. With the Tenuta Monteti, the couple Paolo and Gemma Baratta fulfilled a long-cherished dream shortly before the turn of the millennium. The 60 hectare property is located in the Maremma about 15 kilometres from the sea south of Capalbio in the province of Grosseto on the Monteti hill. In their daily work the landowners are supported by their daughter Eva and her husband Javier Pedrazzini with great competence.
The vineyards of Tenuta Monteti, which are 145 metres high on average, consist of four contiguous parts, which are planted with 6,600 vines per hectare in south- and south-west exposure. There grow and prosper in 28 plots with Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Alicante-Bouschet and Merlot exclusively red varieties. The stony soils have an appropriate clay content that preserves moisture. They are fertilized organically in winter. An own weather station provides the Baratta family with important meteorological data.
In the modern cellar, designed by the architect Sergio Bracco, the wines are produced according to the own vinification and ageing methods, which are subject to continuous refinement. The laws of gravity prevail and the use of pumps is avoided. Since autochthonous yeasts are used in alcoholic fermentation, the grapes have been subjected to spontaneous fermentation since 2007. The berries are first processed separately in wood - partly also in steel - before they are later brought together in the cuvées. The proportion of sulphites in the cellar is kept low. Christian Coco - the oenologist is advised by none other than Carlo Ferrini - is very sensitive and cautious when it comes to the use of wood in the production of the plants. Already the first vintage in 2004 delivered surprisingly good results from the then still young vines.
Tenuta Monteti produces two wines of great quality and personality. The Monteti, the estate's flagship, consists of 40 to 50% Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Caburnio is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (50 to 60%), Alicante-Bouschet and Merlot. Both complex and elegant plants of Tenuta Monteti have a similar style, but are subject to different vinification and maturation processes. SUPERIORE.DE
