Swiss precision meets Tuscan elegance in this characterful Super Tuscan, which has embodied the Widmer family's DNA for over four decades. The name carries a dual meaning: three grape varieties and three terroirs, which Barbara Widmer blends into a harmonious cuvée with inimitable finesse. This blend, comprising 70% Sangiovese, is sourced from the vineyards of Castellina in Chianti, Radda in Chianti and the Maremma, and is refined with 15% each of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The continental Chianti vineyards, situated at altitudes of 230–400 metres with their soils interspersed with clay and galestro, meet the Mediterranean Maremma terroir with its sandy loam soils, which lend the wine its characteristic depth. 

This structured, medium-bodied wine is aged for twelve months, two-thirds in French tonneaux and one-third in concrete. Delicate aromas of red fruits dominate the bouquet: raspberry and blackberry, enveloped by hints of coffee and fresh blossoms. Juicy and expressive on the palate, with velvety tannins and a seductively long finish. A wine that embodies Barbara Widmer's philosophy of harmony – accessible now, yet with the potential for further development. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2024 Tre is a very pretty wine from Brancaia's vineyards in Maremma. Sweet red cherry fruit, mint, white pepper, spice and orange peel caress the palate. Hints of cedar and sweet pipe tobacco appear later, adding gorgeous inner perfume while also lifting the finish. This is impeccably done." Vinous

"A very fragrant and floral wine with notes of violets, roses and red cherries, underscored by toasty, graphite-like aromas. Medium-bodied with crisp acidity, a firm structure and firm, chalky tannins, yet well-balanced with a juicy finish." James Suckling
