POGGIOTONDO Chianti Superiore - Tuscany 2023 Bottle/st (Sangiovese) ORG/VGN

Description

World-famous wine consultant Alberto Antonini makes this wine from his home estate. Just that alone would rock the earth beneath any savvy wine lover. These are just details, and as interesting and vital as they are, it is the taste that is all-important. The perfume, flavour and finish of this crowd-pleasing creation are all seamless, enchanting and immediate. This is the sort of wine you could pour by the flagon at your local Italian trattoria, and every person in the restaurant would be smiling. It is a work of genius to carefully remove astringency, unwanted earthiness and raw edges from a wine, before putting it gently into the bottle such that the Sangiovese grape appears civilised, engaging and conversational. This is what Alberto and his family have done with this gloriously uplifting wine.
