Thres Sommelier is a wine created to tell a story, a way of working, a philosophy. It is the “simplest” wine—the one that brings everyone together, from enthusiasts to novices, from sommeliers to Sunday drinkers. A red blend of Barbera, Uva Rara, and Croatina from a single recovered mixed old vineyard, where the percentages are unknown and perhaps don’t even matter. One night of skin contact, followed by spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts only, racking according to natural rhythms, and 9 months of rest between steel and amphorae. No fining, no invasive filtration, sulfur kept to the absolute minimum. The result is a living, textural, authentic wine that doesn’t seek immediate applause but rather depth.

Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Bright ruby red color with violet reflections, lively and luminous.
- Nose: The olfactory profile is fresh and inviting. Notes of small red fruits (wild strawberry, raspberry, currant) emerge, along with wildflowers and an herbaceous undertone reminiscent of the scrub. Barbera provides freshness and acidity, Croatina gives structure and spice, and Uva Rara adds finesse and elegance. A bouquet that changes, breathes, and moves.
- Palate: The entry is juicy and enveloping, with a delicate and silky tannic texture. The acidity is vibrant and supports the sip with elegance, offering a freshness that enhances the crispness of the fruit. The finish is clean and sapid, with a closure that invites a second glass. A red of great drinkability and personality that pleases everyone.
