Monte del Fra Ca del Magro Edizione Anniversario 2020

TOP 100 2021: „This elegant white is lightly mouthwatering with its citrusy acidity, offering a finely meshed range of white cherry, blood orange sorbet, lemon thyme and salty mineral notes, followed by a lingering, lightly spiced finish. Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Cortese and Chardonnay.”

„Ripe and intense nose with some white almond to the cantaloupe and chamomile. A hint of honey, too. Quite ripe and intense, yet broad and textured, with a nice, grippy feel at the end. Generous and flavorful, yet refined. Quite characterful. Drink now.”

„This old-vine blend of Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Cortese and Incrocio Manzoni has a delicious papaya, melon and apple aroma and a rich, vibrant, mouthwatering palate. Minerally and textural, it offers up flavours of green papaya, honeydew melon, bright citrus peel, green apple and a touch of pineapple. Judging by the complexity and ageability of the 2015 tasted alongside the 2020, this has tons of potential.”

„Flowers and citrus, a white-nut creaminess. White pepper. Linden and honey. There is so much on the nose, I almost forgot to taste it. But here is another Monte del Frà wine that buzzes the mouth with its vivacious vibrato energy and acidity, and yets glides into the finish, soft and seamlessly smooth. Mimosa, linden blossom, crunchy green-skinned apples but also the softness of white pears and a touch of golden spice. Bay leaf and a very very slight hint of orange-flower honey. I can taste the wet white stones of the 2021 Custoza, but here it's stronger on the finish than in the mid point of the wine. Long with hidden power lingering beneath beguiling accessibility. Underpriced.”

„White spring flower, botanical herb and yellow stone fruit aromas come to the forefront. On the rich palate, tangy acidity lifts ripe apricot, honeydew and candied orange slice before a bitter almond close.”

„Funkelndes, sattes Strohgelb. Fein gezeichnete Nase mit Noten nach Marille und Grapefruit, sehr klar. Am Gaumen gutes Gewicht und gute Spannung, feine Pfirsichfrucht, salzig.”

„A stunning old vineyard, a very peculiar interpretation of Custoza, made in the old-fashioned way, by using all the white grapes in the vineyard, then aged in small oak barrels. Pink grapefruit, caper, a iodized hint, then a mentolated ending at the nose. The mouthfeel is also fresh, with Mediterranean scrub 95 nuances. The finish is both salty and fruity”

„Literally nestled in the vineyards located on the gentle hills of Custoza, the Bonomo brothers’ winery is one of the prominent landmarks of Veronese oenology. A close bond with the land, that even the adventure in Valpolicella a few years ago has seen the family committed to acquiring the most beautiful vineyards available in the classic area. Today the vineyard covers about 200 hectares, destined for a production dedicated to elegance and finesse.”
