Product Notes

Poggiotondo Vigna del 1928 Chianti Riserva is a remarkable Italian wine boasting profound depth and complexity. Rooted in a vineyard planted in 1928, this wine reflects the emblematic elegance of Tuscany. On the nose, it exudes ripe dark berries, wild herbs and a hint of Tuscan truffle. The palate is transported by flavours of ripe cherries, tobacco, liquorice with a distinct mineral edge. Resilient tannins and energising acidity balance this wine to perfection. It's an opulent drink that beautifully articulates Chianti Riserva's inimitable style, crafted to be savoured alongside robust meals or aged cheeses. Altogether, it's a sophisticated indulgence.

Tasting Notes

This wine is deep red in colour. The nose is elegant with a blend of red fruit aromas as well as hints of black pepper and clove. Ripe cherry flavours on the palate are coupled with grainy tannins and a vibrant, fresh acidity on the finish.
