Vintage 2021

VERRUZZO

Primarily blended with classic Bordeaux grapes, our Verruzzo – which means small wild boar – is clearly part of the Monteverro and Terra di Monteverro family and shares the same genes. The power and structure of the Cabernet Sauvignon, the aromatics of the Cabernet Franc, the strength of the Syrah and the softness of the Merlot all merge in a red wine full of aromas, Mediterranean character and elegance.

"An explosion of fruit and freshness for this vinous Verruzzo, with a firm but round tannin, a stimulating and refreshing vintage. A very well balanced wine up into the finish, both vibrating and radiant."
