Montevetrano Colli di Salerno

Montevetrano takes its name from a medieval castle that dates to Roman times.  A former property of the French Bourbons, the estate itself was the inspiration for this blend of French varietals with the Campanian king of red grapes - Aglianico. Pleasing scores of wine lovers around the world with its distinctive character and rich spectrum of flavors, Montevetrano is one of the most sought-after wines from Italy.

Tasting Notes: Deep ruby-red in color, aromas of blackberries and spices complement undertones of black currants, licorice, tobacco, earth, and leather. On the palate, Montevetrano is full-bodied, yet elegant with fine-grained tannins and a rich, silky texture. 

Food Pairing: Pair this wine with roasted beef, demi glaces, black truffle ravioli, and beef Wellington.
