2024 Poggiosecco Chianti

A biodynamically farmed Chianti from the heart of Tuscany made by Marco and Giuseppe, who respect natural cycles and intervene minimally in the winemaking process. This classic wine displays a bright ruby red color with intense aromas of red fruits and hints of spicy clove. On the palate, violets and cherry emerge with notes of red fruit and a touch of oregano. The wine shows harmonious balance between firm tannins and fresh acidity, resulting in an easy-drinking yet structured wine that represents natural winemaking at its best.
