The
Monteverro winery (Monte = mountain and Verro = boar, which are often found in the region) is in German hands. The entrepreneur Georg Weber has managed to give shape to his numerous ideas that arose during a sabbatical with the help of local and international experts from the industry. At a location that was previously
completely undervalued, although there are climatic conditions and soil conditions similar to those in the region around Bolgheri.
Thanks to the pioneering spirit and a strong motivation to follow the passion for wine,
Bordeaux wines with IGT award are mainly produced here, which - apart from the Vermentino - have been certified organic since 2019.
The winery has its own laboratory and can therefore respond particularly quickly to test results and determine the best time for the harvest. In the end, this is noticeable in the taste of the
6 different wines. The "Creme de la Creme" is the
Monteverro, in which only the very best grapes are used to complete the blend. Followed by
Terra, also a Bordeaux blend, the
Verruzzo, a wine for every day, and another red one, the Syrah
Tinata, named after Georg Weber's mother.
Two white wines round off the
Monteverro range harmoniously.
A fruity Vermentino (100%) and an extraordinary Chardonay, which is unusual for the region, my absolute, personal favorite.
MY ADVICE For a tour with a knowledgeable guide and a
subsequent tasting of all wines, you should plan around 2 hours and make a reservation in advance. The tours are possible in English, German or Italian, are very interesting and are always accompanied by a professional.
