17 Rene Gabriel
Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot. Recht dunkles Weinrot mit lila Schimmer in der Mitte. Intensives, pflaumiges Bouquet; viel Wärme ausstrahlend, mit dunklen Schokonoten unterlegt. Im Gaumen füllig, cremig und mit einer tollen Konzentration ausgestattet, endet mit Dörrfrüchtenoten. Da kann man durchaus schon von einem nicht zu unterschätzenden Sex-Appeal sprechen. Vom System des Zweitweines und vom nicht ganz einfachen Jahrgang her ist er ausserordentlich gut gelungen. 17/20 trinken

Dense and flavorful, boasting blackberry, blueberry and plum fruit. Earth and spice accents add detail as this tightens up on the finish. Support from ripe, refined tannins keeps this focused on the long finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2017 through 2026. 2,900 cases made.
Producer
Tenuta Monteverro
Characterized by its maritime-climate and ideal location, Monteverro lies along the breathtaking hills of southern Maremma. The winery was founded by German-born Swiss entrepreneur, Georg Weber in the early 2000s. He established the estate with aims to craft his very own first-class Premier Grand Cru Tuscan wine. The first vines were planted in 2004, just outside of the Capalbio village, however, today, the property unfolds over 50-hectares – 27 of which are vineyards. The Weber family strives for perfection in every step they take. From the vines, to the winery, to hiring world-renowned consultant Michel Rolland, no expense was spared in the construction of this estate. Today, Monteverro is regarded as one of Italy’s leading Super-Tuscan producers. Their eponymous wine is also their Premier Cru. With the same proportions of Bordeaux varietals as their second wine, Terra di Monteverro, Monteverro is a complex and structured red with 24 months ageing in 80% new French-oak barrels. The family produces a handful of others wines, following in the Monteverro spirit - the delicacies of the Maremma terroir are sure to sparkle in each bottle.
