The entry-level 2006 Teroldego Rotaliano from Cantina Rotaliano is a rich, full-bodied offering loaded with dark fruits, smoke, minerals, iron and game. It is a dense, plush wine packed with varietal expression and character. Some of the heartier elements in this wine need food to be at their best. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2010. Cantina di Terlano is one of my favorite sources for value-priced wines in Alto Adige. The winery was founded over 100 years ago. Like many estates in the region, Terlano is a cooperative, yet the wines are first-class in every sense of the term. Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 629-0200
