Jahrgang 2015

TERRA DI MONTEVERRO


A classic cuvée of internationally renowned grape varieties, kissed by the Tuscan sun. The term “second wine” would not do justice to Terra di Monteverro, although it shares its composition with Monteverro, its more famous big brother: it’s associated with Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, which age 18 months in French oak casks. A distinctly harmonious wine that combines structure and intensity, a reflection of the fascinating terroir and the character of the region.

"In this very expressive vintage our Terra gives its best: so much ripe red fruit in the glass, chased by balsamic notes of eucalyptus that gives a sapid, fruity, breezy and fresh mouth. The race of a wild horse on our Tuscan Coast."
