Winery - Tre Monti
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This wine is broad on the palate despite only seeing stainless steel and offers a pretty medley of coffee, chocolate and red cherry. The nose is bold, but the mouthfeel is less-so with a lighter imprint and medium tannins.

Cherry, toasted almond and herbal notes characterize a wine that comes close to hitting optimal equilibrium if it weren’t for the alcohol heat. Some wine enthusiasts may appreciate that quality especially if paired with a winter dish like hearty beef stew.

This dessert wine scores in the “acceptable†range because of a slight cloudiness in its appearance and a thin, simplistic mouthfeel. On the upside are distinct lemon rind and herbal aromas.

This is a simple and straightforward Sangiovese from Central Italy with measured aromas of ripe berry fruit, cherry and spice. It offers spice-like flavors of clove and ground nutmeg in the mouth and matches those pungent tones with good density and freshness.

A structured, golden-hued blend of grapes that only sees stainless steel; there are notes of honey, beeswax, melon and dried straw. The wine could pair with white meat or more elaborately prepared vegetables. It has nutty flavors in the mouth and a creamy consistency without being syrupy.

There are nice accents of spice, clove and nutmeg here that enhance the natural berry tones. This Riserva has a bright and intense mouthfeel with good density and a pinch of crispness on the close that would work with cheesy pasta dishes.

Here’s a cheerful, elegant and lively Sangiovese Riserva from Central Italy with vibrant notes of wild berries, cherries and light shadings of exotic spice. The wine is tart and a tad sour in the mouth but does a nice job of keeping the palate refreshed.

A solid, clean and straightforward red with lighter ruby hue and consistency: This is the kind of wine you need for informal occasions. Cherry, chocolate and herbal aromas are backed by medium tannins.

This is a beautiful and delicate dessert wine with lightly musty notes that appear in the back of candied fruit, orange zest, almond paste, stone fruit and vanilla cream. It feels light and buoyant on the close but also delivers the heft and personality you need for a pairing with aged goat cheese and apricot jelly.
