Product Notes

Poggiotondo Vigna delle Conchiglie Chianti Riserva is a robust Italian wine hailing from Tuscany's prestigious region. It boasts of a tantalising bouquet dominated by ripe red fruits, well-accentuated by warm notes of vanilla and spices, courtesy of oak ageing. Your palate relishes its full-bodied richness, displaying a good balance of acidity and firm, structured tannins. The lingering finish leaves traces of cherries, earthiness and spice. It's an elegant Chianti Riserva wine that pairs splendidly with grilled meats and robust Italian dishes. Poggiotondo's meticulous cultivation and organic practices perfectly translate in this gem worth savouring.

Tasting Notes

The wine is mid to light garnet in colour. The nose is full of ripe dark and red fruit aromas, which combine with a delicate spiciness. The palate is full and rich complemented by good acidity and a velvety texture from the fine grained tannins. The finish is long with great persistence.
