Brother and sister Piero and Benedetta Lanza can trace their family estate back to Prince Ginori Conti [1865-1939]. Located in Radda in Chianti, the 12 hectares of organically farmed, mostly Sangiovese vineyards are nestled among olive groves and woods. The vineyard was planted between 1994- 2004, south-southwest facing, at 400-500 meters in elevation with rocky galestro soils. Fermented with native yeasts in concrete, transferred to “casks of 20/25hl of Slavonian oak and tonneau of 4/5hl of French oak where the malolactic fermentation takes place” followed by 12 months ageing, bottled then aged for 8 months before release. Dark garnet in colour, with aromas of black cherry, licorice, leather, bramble and crushed black peppercorn. Silky layers of all the cherries [red, black, sour], pomegranate, red currant, cracked black pepper, Tuscan underbrush, earth and fresh acidity are framed by grippy tannins. Pomegranate, blackberry, black cherry and cigar box spice linger on the plush finish. A classic expression of Chianti Classico. 100% Sangiovese 14.5% Alcohol Fattoria Poggerino Chianti Classico DOCG 2015 #vinobiologico #vinvivant #vinnaturel #raddainchianti #vinbiologique #organicwine #lowintervention #drinkbetterwine #vinotoscano #chianticlassico #vinoitaliano #italianwinelover #winereview #instavino #winestagram #vinorosso #redwine #italianwine #instawine #tuscanwine #sangiovese #fattoriapoggerino #caravino
