Casa Vino 2000 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti)
- $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.

Casa Vino 2003 Nero d’Avola (Sicilia)
- Best Buy
- $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.

Casa Vino 2002 Sangiovese (Chianti)
- $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.
