THE WINE

'Core' Rosso by Montevetrano is a red wine from Aglianico grapes in purity, produced in Sannio, in the province of Benevento. The volcanic nature of the soil with the presence of tuff, volcanic ash and limestone allows these grapes to express themselves with the highest quality. A wine followed, with the passion and knowledge that distinguishes it, by the oenologist Riccardo Cotarella who, as for Montevetrano, has realized another intuition of Silvia Imparato: wanting to represent a typical wine of the territory with the same quality as Montevetrano. Whole wine with a nice freshness with a well balanced acidity. On the nose licorice and cherry, the juicy and fleshy mouth of the cherry with a nice taut texture accompanied by light herbaceous accents.

THE COMPANY

In the '80s, the desire to experiment drove a group of wine-loving friends to found a winery, in whose management Silvia Imparato, a former photographer, was joined by Riccardo Cotarella, now a renowned oenologist. It was precisely 1983, the year in which the Montevetrano winery project was launched, which six years later will produce the first vintage of the homonymous wine, the "Montevetrano", now famous blend of Campania, which brings together the international varieties of vine of cabernet sauvignon and merlot, with the autochthonous Aglianico. Currently extending over an area of ​​twenty-six hectares, five of which are planted with vines, the company Montevetrano is located in San Cipriano Piacentino, in the province of Salerno, and continues to produce its "Montevetrano", a label to which was added that of "Core", the latter obtained by working the grapes of aglianico in purity, almost to pay homage to the inseparable bond that the noble grape has with the territory of Campania. Among the rows, agronomic practices are by no means invasive, while in the cellar the use of woods is wise and sartorial: wines with a unique and intense olfactory profile are born, and supported by an unparalleled gustatory harmony, achieved in the perfect fusion between fruit, tannic texture and precious tertiary hints.
