Rosso di Montalcino Il Poggione 2021 — a supple, cherry-driven Tuscan Sangiovese.
From the famous Il Poggione winery — a family estate dedicated to excellence since 1880 — this Rosso di Montalcino is a true reflection of Tuscany. Montalcino's ideal microclimate and clay-limestone soils bring out the best in the Sangiovese grape.
Aromas of ripe cherry and red berries with hints of spice and earth. The palate offers red fruit with tobacco and leather, supported by fine tannins and balanced acidity, and a velvety texture leading to a lingering finish.
