2013 | Monteverro | Monteverro Toscana IGT

It's so structured and refined with beautiful length and sophistication. Full body and gorgeous tension. Fantastic aromas and flavors of currants, plums and tile. Hints of hazelnuts and lavender. Linear and polished on the finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: A beautiful wine, the 2013 Monteverro sports a thickly extracted and slightly retro style that recalls the heyday of the super Tuscans. It offers a subtle twist of nostalgia, but it does so with a confident personality. Dark fruit, spice, tobacco and cured leather come together as a united front. The blend consists of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The mouthfeel delivers ample power and textural richness

• James Suckling: This is a Bordeaux blend that competes with the best of Tuscany such as Sassiciaia and Ornellaia. It's so structured and refined with beautiful length and sophistication. Full body and gorgeous tension. Fantastic aromas and flavors of currants, plums and tile. Hints of hazelnuts and lavender. Linear and polished on the finish. A wine that delivers so much now but will be even better in four to five years. Best ever from here. From organically grown grapes.

Producer Information

Monteverro is a wine producer based in the southern Tuscan village of Capalbio, in Maremma. The estate is best known for its Super Tuscan wines, including its flagship wine, Monteverro, which is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Founder Georg Weber established the estate's vineyards in 2004 and produced the inaugural vintage four years later in 2008. Today, the vineyards extend over an area of 35 hectares (86 acres), planted to Syrah, Grenache, Sangiovese, Chardonnay and Vermentino, as well as the Bordeaux red grape varieties. The vines occupy stony red clay soils that are rich in minerals and, when combined with the favorable coastal location, enjoy ideal growing conditions. Consulting oenologist Michel Rolland oversees the winemaking of the estate's six wines: Monteverro, Terra di Monteverro, Tinata and Verruzzo, as well as varietal Chardonnay and Vermentino wines. Both the Monteverro and the Terra di Monteverro (the second wine) are made from similar quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The Verruzzo is a blend of Bordeaux red grapes with smaller quantities of Sangiovese, while Dyed is a blend of Syrah and Grenache. The two white wines are both aged on their lees with only light filtration.
