Tre Monti Campo di Mezzo Sangiovese Superiore

Winemaker Tre Monti on the winery

“We are the Navacchia family, and we have been making wine in the hills of Emilia-Romagna since 1971. Our winery is based near Imola and includes vineyards in different parts of Romagna. We farm organically and pay close attention to the character of our grapes and the soils in which they grow. Sangiovese plays an important role in our region and is therefore central to our production. We want to create wines that express their origins, respecting nature and avoiding unnecessary intervention.”

And on Emilia-Romagna, Italy

“Our Campo di Mezzo comes from Vigna della Quercia, a vineyard near Imola where the Sangiovese vines were planted between 1995 and 2003. The soil is silty with a medium texture, giving the grapes a lovely balance of fruit and freshness. We hand-harvest the grapes and allow them to macerate on their skins for around twelve days at 28 to 30°C. Malolactic fermentation follows. The wine then matures in stainless steel tanks and concrete vats, without oak. This keeps the character of Sangiovese at the forefront: juicy cherries, red fruit, floral notes and a lively, balanced structure.”
