Winery Montevetrano

The project was launched in the mid-1980s at the initiative of Silvia Imparato, with the contribution of oenologist Riccardo Cotarella. After initial experiments in the 1980s, the first commercial releases date to the early 1990s. Over time Montevetrano has become a benchmark in Campanian viticulture thanks to targeted winemaking choices and a strong territorial identity.

The winery favors control of the entire production cycle by using estate-grown grapes, practices respectful of the land, and targeted aging to promote longevity and complexity. Red winemaking involves long macerations and aging in barriques; for the Core whites, aging in stainless steel is preferred.

The estate is located in San Cipriano Picentino, within the Monti Picentini Regional Park, on a hill ridge at around 100 m above sea level. The vineyards benefit from the influence of the sea and from medium-textured soils with calcareous fragments/'bones'.

The wines have received numerous scores and accolades in international and Italian guides and magazines, with several vintages rated above 90 points.
