Triacca 2005 Santavenere Prugnolo Gentile (Vino Nobile di Montepulciano)

Price $18

This attractive Vino Nobile offers ripe cherry fruit, loads of spice and lingering tones of clove, vanilla and pipe tobacco. It’s thinner but also more acidic in the mouth, which is an appreciated quality for a Sangiovese-based wine. — M.L. (6/1/2008)

Triacca 2004 Il Mandorlo Red (Toscana)

Price $18

This 70-30 blend of Cabernet and Sangiovese features aromas of cherry, toast, maple syrup, ink and spice. The wine boast thick, seemingly impenetrable extraction and a dense, chewy mouthfeel. — M.L. (4/1/2008)

points

Triacca 1998 La Palaia Red (Chianti Classico)

You can almost tell from the look that this is dense and heavy. It has a huge bouquet of wet earth, spice and oak, but not much fruit. In the mouth, it is drying and on the flat side, although still-kicking tannins reach up and grab the palate. The finish is soft and losing life. Some oxidation and overripeness hold it back. — M.S. (8/1/2002)
