Montevetrano

"Heute braucht man leichtere Weine, sie passen besser zu unserem hektischen Leben", meint die kluge Silvia Imparato. Und so feiern wir ihren Zweitwein - einen Aglianico mit frischem Fruchtduft und lebendigem Geschmack, elegant und komplex ohne jede Spur von Opulenz. Wie es uns gefällt! SUPERIORE.DE

"Extremely well crafted with ultra-fine tannins and beautiful and subtle aromas and flavors of black fruit, black pepper and white pepper. Medium to full body. Polished and so enjoyable to taste. Can age beautifully." James Suckling

"Very deep purple-ruby; this is very dark for an Aglianico wine. Delicate on the nose and remarkably light on its feet, offering sweet blueberry, red cherry, sweet spice and floral flavors, similar to the aromas, that linger impressively on the juicy, long, clean finish. A knockout wine, and the best Aglianico ever from Montevetrano." Vinous

Tiefes Purpur-Rubin. Traubige, ausdrucksstarke Fruchtaromen in der opulenten Nase. Am Gaumen dann raffiniert: Aromen von Kräutern, süßen Gewürzen und Blaubeernektar werden von einem soliden Tanningerüst und einer lebendigen, pfeffrigen Säure unterstützt. Wunderbar langer, saftiger Abgang. Tolles Reifepotenzial! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2018 Rosso Core impresses with its mix of dark rich fruits, exotic spices, crushed ashen stone and peppery herbs. This is unexpectedly soft and lifted in feel, with a pure display of ripe plum complemented by nuances of sage and rosy inner florals that form toward the close. A layer of fine tannin dries the expression through the finale, as echoes of licorice and black currants linger. The 2018 Core, a varietal Aglianico, could use a short stay in the cellar to unwind. That said, this is a very lifted and cool-toned expression that will perform best over the short term." Vinous

"Super balance to this intense red with exquisite spice to the mixed berries on the nose, following through to a full body with fine, well-integrated tannins, succulent fruit and a long, elegant and flavorful finish. All in place and lovely to drink now, but best from 2023." James Suckling

Wunderschöne Cuvée aus Greco und Fiano. Im Bouquet ein opulentes Potpourri aus Passionsfrucht, Pfirsich und Honigmelone. Am Gaumen nicht zu schwer, sondern eher tänzelnd-elegant mit einer wunderbar frischen Struktur. Komplexer und vollmundiger Abgang. SUPERIORE.DE

"Enticing fruit-cocktail nose with a lemony twist, as well as some honey and meadow flowers. Medium-bodied with intense, super clean fruit flavors and a delicious finish. So well balanced." James Suckling

Silvia Imparatos nobler Montevetrano ist eines der ersten Geschöpfe des berühmten "fliegenden Önologen" Riccardo Cotarella und sicher auch bis heute eines seiner wichtigsten. Dunkel rubinrot, erfüllt von Kirsch- und Brombeeraromen mit einem Hauch von Vanille und Tabak. Am Gaumen präsentiert er sich würzig, mit eleganten Tanninen, guter Struktur und außerordentlichem unverwechselbaren Nachhall. SUPERIORE.DE

"Silvia Imparato is a leading lady of Campania wine. I visited her a few years back and have such a pleasant memory of her home, with beams of sunlight hitting the bright red tomatoes, lemons and basil plants sitting on the handmade ceramic tiles of her rustic kitchen countertop. Her elegant Montevetrano 2017 Montevetrano is a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Aglianico and Merlot. From a hot and dry vintage, this expression shows rich concentration with black fruit, blackberry and cherry confit. Those dark fruit tones are nicely supplemented by spice and lightly cured tobacco." Robert Parker

"In the 2017 Montevetrano (Colli di Salerno)I find depths of crushed blue and blackberries, laced with minerals, sweet exotic spices, and cocoa powder, as dark, alluring floral tones pull me closer to the glass, offset by a hint of fresh mint leaf. It floods the palate with silky textures and cool-toned black fruits, as brisk acids carry the 2017 Montevetrano effortlessly across the senses, leaving a coating of savory spice, minerals, and fine tannin. The finish is long and structured, clenching the palate with youthful grip, as hints of black fruits fade to reveal echoes of violet florals. There’s so much density on the palate, yet it is somehow lifted, seamless, and precise, with all the raw ingredients needed to evolve in the cellar over the next ten to twenty years. Gorgeous." Vinous

"Aromas and flavors of blackberries and blueberries with licorice and black-pepper. Medium to full body. Chewy, yet refined and balance. Another two or three years of bottle age would bring it more together." James Suckling

Silvia Imparatos nobler Montevetrano ist eines der ersten Geschöpfe Riccardo Cotarellas und sicher auch bis heute eines seiner wichtigsten. Tiefes Rubinrot mit violetten Reflexen. Reiche Aromen von dunklen Pflaumen, schwarzen Johannisbeeren, Zedernholz, Graphit und Mineralien in der fesselnden Nase. Im Trunk sauber, frisch, saftig und mit einer einnehmenden, raffinierten Textur. Im langen, anmutigen und vielschichtigen Abgang finden sich Lakritz- und Veilchenaromen. Ein sehr vielversprechender, noch junger Montevetrano mit großer Zukunft! SUPERIORE.DE

"There’s a decidedly floral and spicy character to the 2018 Montevetrano (Colli di Salerno) that captivates the senses and pulls you close to the glass. Its fruit is more lifted and high-toned than usual, as blackberries mix with currants and crushed violets. A wave of stone dust and minerals translates directly from the nose to the palate, as its initially-silky textures are quickly firmed up by a core of strict acidity and grippy tannins that settle in toward the close. This is incredibly long but also achingly structured, currently holding back much of its fruit, and instead showing inner rose tones and hints of black tea. The 2018 will require a number of years to fully blossom; yet once it does, you can expect a very pretty and perfumed vintage of Montevetrano." Vinous

"A suave, full-bodied red, with plush tannins firming the rich blackberry coulis and blueberry fruit. It's layered and harmonious, with hints of bay leaf, graphite and mineral unfurling on the palate and through to the racy finish." Wine Spectator

"A red with plum and cherry character with hints of bark, mushroom and clove. It’s full-bodied with layers of fruit and a long, flavorful finish. Needs time to soften, but structured and beautiful. Such finesse with strength. Really impressive. Try after 2022." James Suckling
