Campania IGT Aglianico Core Rosso 2023 Montevetrano

What kind of wine is it

Core Rosso di Montevetrano is a red wine from Campania made exclusively from Aglianico grapes. It ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature and ages for 10 months in barrique, maintaining a smooth and juicy style, with freshness and persistence that enhance its fruity profile and spicy nuances.

Where does it come from

It comes from vineyards located in the municipality of Cipriano Picentino, in the province of Salerno, in the heart of Campania. Its origin is closely tied to the production area and its regional characteristics, offering a consistent framework to interpret Aglianico in a red, immediately approachable version.

How is it produced

The Aglianico grapes are harvested and selected by hand. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature for precise process management; then, the wine matures for 10 months in barrique before bottling, completing a process that blends technical control with oak aging.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it shows a ruby red color. On the nose, it offers aromas of plum, black cherry, and ripe black cherry, followed by notes of cinnamon and cocoa. On the palate, it is smooth and juicy, with pleasant freshness accompanying each sip and lasting persistence, where fruit and spices return.

Food pairings

It is ideal for game dishes, where the wine’s smooth sip and freshness support intensely flavored preparations. The notes of ripe fruit and spices blend with meats and slow-cooked dishes, also pairing well with rich sauces and textures, with a persistent finish.

When to serve it

It’s best enjoyed when a smooth and juicy red is desired, with well-defined freshness and recognizable persistence. It is recommended for convivial occasions featuring game dishes, as it maintains continuity between aromatic intensity and the wine’s easy drinkability, offering a clear expression of Aglianico in Campania.
