Winemaker Notes
Red cherries are supported by darker fruit aromas and hints of licorice on the nose. The palate opens up with juicy red fruit notes. Understated spice characters dominate the mid palate followed by zippy acidity that lend freshness to the long minerally finish. The
fine grained tannins help give this wine its solid structure.
In the north-western corner of the Chianti region, resting on the hills between the Montalbano and Arno valley, 123 acres of vines are joined by some 2,000 olive trees on the Poggiotondo estate. Founder and winemaker Alberto Antonini is a scholar of modern winemaking earning degrees from the University of Florence, Bordeaux University, and University of California Davis in addition to his winemaking stints around the globe. The Poggiotondo vineyards enjoy a Mediterranean influence and soils are riddled with remnants of sea life that afford minerality and complexity to these modern DOCG and IGT renditions.
