Smells of roses, red berries and menthol, with almost candied but not sweet fruit undercurrents. It’s elegant but energetic, honestly the best dance partner when you want someone who can Dance with a capital D but also have fun. Honestly, all of Poggerino’s wines were exceptional, one of my favorite stops in Chianti Classico.

A little more green than I remember but good push mid-palate. Needs time.

This Chianti Classico is made of 100 % organic Sangiovese. Dominated by red berries and red cherry; dusty with spices, licorice and hint of herbal note. Great acidity with integrated tannin.

This is great! I actually like it more than the same vintage reserva. Bright red cherries but with a dark leathery tone. Earthy. Tobacco.

Black cherry. Round on the palate. Cohesive, plush. Pretty much medium body.

Medium Ruby with a pretty fragrance of red flowers, sour cherry, violet, leather and a thyme-like herbal note. Firm acidity and the tannins are mellowing out nicely

A tasty herbal chianti with white pepper notes. Should be drinking more of these. Made for Tapas.

Lots of floral notes and riper fruit character on this chianti. Showing a little more extraction to it. Structurally there but the acidity seems a little diminished for what I'd expect from this region. Dusty minerality but missing those tomato and sanguine tones I'm used to.
