95 Vinous
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.

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. Some 20,000 bottles were made.

A finely detailed red, fresh and focused, featuring a pure beam of ripe black currant fruit, layered with subtle accents of wild herb, star anise, graphite and iron. Medium- to full-bodied and elegant, with creamy tannins firming the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Aglianico and Merlot. Drink now through 2030.

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.
