Poggiotondo Chianti Organico 2020

Alberto Antonini’s family estate is situated in the hills to the north-west of Empoli in western Tuscany. These hills are south and south-west facing, planted primarily with Sangiovese. Poggiotondo has been certified organic since the 2014 vintage and focuses on producing authentic, pure, terroir-driven wines utilising traditional, indigenous grape varieties and local winemaking techniques. This wine is a deep garnet red in colour. On the nose, dried oregano aromas are entwined with dark and red cherries. Ripe cherries on the palate are balanced with grainy tannins typical of traditional Chianti, with a vibrant, fresh acidity on the finish.
