This is an honest, simple Sangiovese that delivers fresh fruit and vibrant flavors. You can’t ask for more. The Tenuta Trerose 2019 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Santa Caterina reveals classic lines with red and purple berry flavors mixed with mild spice and toast. Aging occurs in traditional oak barrel and lasts a quick 12 months. The vineyards are planted over nine hectares with sandstone soils, and 35,000 bottles were made.
The name of this grape, meaning 'blood of Jove' conjures up evocative images of long dead civilizations, and gives the Sangiovese varietal a sense of the holy, the sacred, the special. Indeed, this particular type of Italian grape has been cultivated and processed for thousands of years, and is said to be the original favorite grape varietal of the Romans, and the Etruscans before them. Throughout history, vintners have continued to plant this varietal, and they continue to produce wonderful wines to this day. The long bunches of very dark, round fruit are treasured by fine wineries in Italy and a few other places around the world, and when young, these grapes are lively – full of strawberry flavors and a little spiciness. However, it is when they are aged in oak that they take on some truly special flavors and aromas, as seen in some of the finest wines of the Old World.
Country
Italy
There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
Region
Tuscany
The central Italian region of Tuscany is widely understood to be one of the world's most famous and highly regarded wine regions. The beautiful rolling hillsides and medieval towns and castles which are a key feature of the area are also home to many of Europe's finest wineries, and extremely high quality vineyards growing the distinctive Sangiovese and Vernaccia grape varietals which are the flavorful backbone of Tuscany's wonderful red and white wines. For almost three thousand years, this region has been recognized as an ideal home for wine production on a large scale, and the ancient Etruscans, Greeks and Romans all noticed that fine grape varietals flourished on the unique soils and under the hot sunshine which typifies the area. Today, Tuscany is home to a wide range of wines, from the traditional to the complex, but all dedicated to excellent flavors and aromas, and maintaining the region's international reputation.

The nose is primarily umami, with notes of fennel, olive and smoke, but orange zest, wild cherries and strawberries provide a funky sweetness. The strawberry note highlights the palate, before undertones of pepper, meat and a continued smokiness set up an astringent finish.

Dusty rose, cracked slate and dried black cherries can all be found as the 2019 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Santa Caterina opens in the glass. Silky and pliant, this washes easily across the palate, gaining traction as mineral-tinged wild berries and silty tannins collect toward the close. The 2019 finishes with an herbal streak and lightly structured as a coating of primary concentration is left to linger. The Santa Caterina is built for the cellar.
Winery Notes
Ruby red in color with purplish reflections. On the nose, an explosion of red fruit reminiscent of brandied cherries, currants, blackberries, bitter orange and myrtle berries. The palate offers a unique sweetness and softness that only Sangiovese grapes from the Montepulciano area can achieve.
