2019 Verruzzo Di Monteverro Toscana
2019 Verruzzo Di Monteverro Toscana This 2019 wine has a bright garnet red color with purple nails. The nose opens with floral aromas of rose and lavender, enriched with fruity notes of plum and wild strawberries. On the palate it is structured, soft and with character, with hints of rose, strawberry and melon.
The Tuscany Verruzzo di Monteverro was born in vineyards located in the Grosseto municipality of Capalbio, in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma.
It is produced with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese grapes, harvested exclusively by hand between the first ten days of September and the first of October. The vinification takes place entirely “by fall”, so as not to deplete and allow the highest expression in the glass. Subsequently the wine ages for 12 months in French oak barrels before being bottled.
Ideal in combination with lasagna and first courses with lamb ragù, this red wine is perfect to accompany medium-aged cheeses.
Monteverro
Monteverro lies at the foot of the small medieval town of Capalbio on the southern edge of Tuscany in Maremma, a region well-known for its originality and tradition.
The vineyard estate is situated in close proximity to the coast and is characterised by its unusual slopes on stony, red clay soil. But it is also the people who make Monteverro so unique. The pure pleasure of wine commits us to uncompromising manual work and selection in the vineyards, and through precision and innovative technology in the cellar, we are ultimately helping every vine variety, every location and every vintage to achieve their optimum expression.
