Note di degustazione
The 2020 Montevetrano is remarkably pretty, wafting up with a rose-tinged array of black cherries, exotic spices and cedar shavings, complicated by hints of balsam herbs. This is a total pleasure on the palate, velvety in texture yet lifted in feel with depths of dark red fruits and tactile mineral tones. A collection of fine tannins amasses toward the close. It finishes long and classically structured, with a pleasantly bitter tinge that puckers the cheeks and a bump of residual acidity that keeps the mouth watering for more. The 2020 is supremely elegant yet refined. It’s geared up for a long, steady evolution.

From a very warm and sunny vintage, the Montevetrano 2020 Montevetrano is a robust, smooth and full-bodied expression with concentrated and very ripe fruit. The wine starts with plenty of baked blackberry and plum but then cedes to sweet spice and campfire ash. There is a point of dry tannin on the close. The blend is 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Aglianico and 20% Merlot on this 20,000-bottle release.
I love the nose and it makes me think of Campania with its crushed stone, pumice, blackberry, and cracked pepper. Some tar. The palate is full-bodied with polished and fine tannins that are chewy and give structure to this young wine. It lasts a very long time on the palate. Smokey and ashy at the end. Drink after 2025.
