This is a famous red that delivers depth and finesse. Full body, ultra-fine tannins and a wonderful finish of blackberry, cocoa and spices including black peppercorns. One of the best Montevetranos in years. A blend of aglianico and merlot. Drink or hold.

The 2013 Montevetrano was a little shut down when I tasted it. This blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 30% Aglianico starts off slowly but it does reach full speed with a few quick swirls of the glass. Some 30,000 bottles were made. The wine opens to a dark garnet color with thick concentration of dark pigments. The bouquet needs a little patience before it shows a complete bouquet of rose, spice, dark chocolate and dried blackberry aromas.<br/>The delightful and inspirational Silvia Imparato is a larger-than-life figure on the Campania wine scene. Her work with Consulting Enologist Riccardo Cotarella over the years has forever raised the bar on the region's vinous identity. Back with her first vintage of Montevetrano in 1991, she proved that great wines could be made here (especially in the unlikely Salerno area south of Naples where few other wineries exist). Percentages change according to vintage conditions, but the estate's namesake wine is usually a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Aglianico and 20% Merlot. On my visit to the beautiful estate, Silvia Imparato generously offered to open a few back vintages so that we could check the evolution of this iconic wine.

Coffee and spice notes underscore this rich, chewy red, accenting flavors of crushed black currant and wild cherry fruit, smoky mineral and star anise, with a hint of cocoa. This is sleek and finely meshed, with a grippy finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Aglianico and Merlot. Drink now through 2026. 2,100 cases made. –AN

Montevetrano di Silvia Imparato
1995 explodierte der kampanische Superstar-Wein Montevetrano in der Weinszene und erreichte fast über Nacht Kultstatus. Die italienische Fotografin Silvia Imparato besaß zunächst nur 4 Hektar Rebfläche südlich von Neapel und erzeugte 1991 recht wenig Wein. Durch die Ergebnisse ermutigt, stellte sie Winzer Ricardo Cotarella ein der beim 1992`er Jahrgang helfen sollte. Im Jahr 1995 schickte sie die Jahrgänge 1991 bis 1993 an Robert Parker, welcher eine hohe Punktzahl vergab und ihn bekanntermaßen als den „Sassacaia des Südens“ bezeichnete. Damit wurde der Wein über Nacht begehrt. Der Weinberg befindet sich auf einem Südhang mit kiesigen Böden. Während der erste Jahrgang 70 % Cabernet und 30 % Aglianico beinhaltete, ist die Mischung jetzt typischerweise 60 % Cabernet, 30 % Merlot und 10 % Aglianico geworden. Zunächst wurden nur 1.000 Flaschen hergestellt. Jetzt beträgt die Produktion mehr als 30.000 Flaschen. Die Weingärten wurden von 4 auf 6 Hektar erhöht und sollen in naher Zukunft auf bis zu 11 Hektar erweitert werden. Die Expansion wird erst beendet wenn die Produktion 50.000 Flaschen erreicht hat.
