Il Poggiale Chianti Classico Riserva
Made from 90% Sangioveto, 5% Canaiolo, and 5% Ciliegiolo grown in the Il Poggiale vineyard, at an elevation of almost 1500 feet above sea level. The combination of higher elevation and extremely low yields results in a wine that manages to show both austerity and layered richness at the same time. This classic red holds great aging capability.
Tasting Notes
This Riserva is brilliant garnet in color, with layered aromas of red cherries, earthiness, rose flowers and leather. On the palate, the wine shows excellent structure with firm but integrated tannins.
Food Pairing
Full-bodied with plenty of spice, this wine goes well with rich fare such as osso buco, beef stew, casseroles, roast beef or filet mignon.
