Curation Note

The Tasting

A guided note in three moments, by our curators

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Poggio Croce Chianti Classico Riserva presents a luminous ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful vibrancy, and offers an intensely fragrant bouquet of ripe cherry, wild blackberry, and a subtle whisper of dried violet. The nose also reveals intriguing notes of leather and a touch of earthy truffle, characteristic of a well-aged Sangiovese from this esteemed appellation.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it delivers a beautifully structured and full-bodied experience, with a lively acidity that balances the generous tannins and a long, lingering finish that echoes the fruit and savory nuances. The wine's complexity unfolds with each sip, revealing hints of tobacco and a satisfying mineral edge that speaks to its Tuscan terroir.

  3. At the Table

    03

    This exceptional Riserva would elegantly complement classic Tuscan dishes such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, rich wild boar ragu, or even a hearty lamb stew. It also pairs wonderfully with aged Pecorino cheese or a delicate mushroom risotto.
