Casa Vino 2000 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti)

Price $13

Grapey and jammy on the nose, with blackberry and vanilla aromas. Hits firmly with cherry flavors, but the feel is a touch coarse, courtesy of hard tannins. At times the wine even throws off an artificial flavor, but it’s hard to retrieve, so we’ve discounted it. — W.E. (4/1/2005)

Casa Vino 2003 Nero d'Avola (Sicilia)

Best Buy

Price $9

Fresh and fragrant, with a jumble of cherry, plum and raspberry aromas. The palate is tight and snappy, with raspberry along with a sure-fire dose of lemon-based acidity. Quite tight and scouring, due to that aforementioned acidity. Imported by Casa Vino. — M.S. (7/1/2005)

Casa Vino 2002 Sangiovese (Chianti)

Price $10

Warm and fruity, with herbal cherry aromas. On the palate there’s raspberry as well as an all-too-familiar lemony streak to the middle. Citrus peel and milk chocolate carry the finish. Too tart and zesty to be taken more seriously. — W.E. (4/1/2005)
