Toscana Rosso POGGIONCINO BOCELLI 1831

Poggioncino Rosso di Toscana IGT is a red wine produced in Tuscany by the Bocelli 1831 company, in the Lajatico area, in the province of Pisa. It is a wine designed to represent a classic yet accessible style of Tuscan tradition, with a modern setting and good drinkability. It is born from a blend of Sangiovese grapes mainly, alongside Canaiolo, Cabernet Sauvignon and a small part of Malvasia Bianca, grown on medium-textured soils. Winemaking takes place in temperature-controlled steel to preserve the fruity component and freshness of the wine, while aging takes place for approximately 12 months in second-passage French oak barriques, followed by a further aging period in the bottle of approximately six months.

Characteristics of this Tuscan wine

On organoleptic examination it appears with a medium intensity ruby red colour, with slightly purplish reflections. On the nose it is elegant and immediate, with hints of cherry, ripe red fruits and small berries, accompanied by spicy notes of black pepper and herbaceous nuances such as sage. On the mouth, it is balanced, soft and medium-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and good flow; the finish is pleasantly fruity and persistent, with a return of spicy sensations.
