The 2010 Roero Riserva Mombeltramo offers an intriguing interplay of aromas, flavors and textures. Sweet red cherries, tobacco, game, menthol and licorice open up in the glass, all supported by beams of precise tannins. The wine's mid-weight structure suggests it will mature a bit earlier than the other 2010s in the range. Still, there is a lot to like.
