Appearance & Nose
01The Tenuta Poggio ai Mandorli Chianti Classico Riserva presents a deep, luminous ruby red with subtle garnet glints, hinting at its age. Its bouquet is a complex tapestry of ripe cherry, wild blackberry, and a whisper of dried violet, interwoven with earthy notes of tobacco leaf and a touch of balsamic.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, this Sangiovese-driven Riserva offers a robust yet elegant structure, with velvety tannins and a vibrant acidity that balances the concentrated dark fruit flavors. The finish is remarkably persistent, leaving a lingering sensation of spice and minerality that echoes the Tuscan sun. This distinguished Chianti Classico Riserva finds its perfect companions in slow-cooked wild boar ragu, grilled Florentine steak, aged Pecorino cheese, or a classic Bistecca alla Fiorentina. It also shines alongside mature lamb dishes or robust pasta preparations featuring mushrooms.
