Core di Montevetrano è un vino rosso che trae la sua essenza dalle terre generose della Campania. Questo Campania Rosso IGT è un blend sapientemente orchestrato di Aglianico e Piedirosso, vitigni autoctoni che conferiscono al vino una marcata identità territoriale.

All’occhio, si presenta con un colore rosso rubino intenso, lucidato da riflessi purpurei che invitano alla degustazione. Al naso, sprigiona un bouquet complesso e seducente, dove le note di frutti rossi maturi, come ciliegia e prugna, si fondono armoniosamente con accenni speziati di pepe nero e balsamiche di tabacco e liquirizia.

In bocca, Core rivela una struttura piena e avvolgente. I tannini sono ben presenti ma perfettamente integrati, offrendo una tessitura vellutata e un finale lungo e persistente. La freschezza dell'Aglianico si unisce alla morbidezza del Piedirosso, donando equilibrio e armonia al palato.

Ottimo compagno di piatti a base di carne rossa, selvaggina e formaggi stagionati, risulta perfetto da condividere in conviviali momenti speciali. Grazie alla sua equilibrata acidità e alla sua robusta struttura, questo vino si presta anche ad un’evoluzione interessante se lasciato riposare in cantina per qualche anno.

Core di Montevetrano è una vera espressione del terroir campano, capace di raccontare la storia e la tradizione della regione attraverso ogni sorso.

Long-standing collaboration with oenologist Riccardo Cotarella Multi-award-winning wines, highly rated by the leading international guides.
Winery history
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.
Production philosophy
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.
Terroir and vineyards
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'.
Awards and recognitions
The wines have received numerous scores and accolades in international and Italian guides and magazines, with several vintages rated above 90 points.
