The 2008 Terra di Monteverro is a gorgeous wine layered with sweet dark plums, grilled herbs and spices, all of which flow effortlessly from a radiant, medium-bodied frame. I especially like the way the wine blossoms on the mid-palate and finish. This is an excellent choice for readers who want to get a look at what is happening at Monteverro without spending the money for the more important bottlings. Terra di Monteverro is Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
