A Tuscan blend that you can drink every day without putting a hole in your pocket, and it's only produced for the American market! So, you know that means. Loads of fruit, lush, opulent, and some oak. Just a tasty, everyday wine that you can have with pizza, pasta, or just about anything. We sampled it a few times in the store for customers and had a great response to the wine.

Reviews

Antonio Galloni Wine Advocate 87 Points

The 2008 Bere, a blend of 50% Sangiovese, 25% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, is classy and elegant from start to finish. Perfumed red berries flow through to a long, clean finish. In 2008 there is a little less density than is normally the case, but this is just about as good a wine as was made in Tuscany in this price range. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012.Viticcio is an excellent source for well-priced wines from the heart of Chianti Classico.

Wine Spectator 87 Points

Features blueberry and cherry aromas, with hints of toasty oak. Full-bodied and chewy, this is a little hollow midpalate. Should fill in with age. Best after 2011. 5,415 cases made.–JS
