Comment on noteThe wine
Let me guide you to a Tuscan gem, a wine that embodies the wild and refined spirit of Maremma. This Poggio alle Nane 2019 is an invitation to explore deep flavors, a sensory journey to the heart of a unique terroir.
This Maremma Toscana DOC red wine is the work of the Antinori estate, crafted at the Tenuta Le Mortelle. Nestled in the heart of Maremma, just a few kilometers from Castiglione della Pescaia, this property enjoys a privileged environment. The name "Poggio alle Nane" moreover evokes local history, recalling an area where ducks, called "nane", were once raised. It is from the blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of Carménère that this wine is born, grape varieties chosen for their ability to fully express the richness of the terroir of the Poggio alle Nane vineyards.
At first glance, its intense ruby red color, adorned with purplish highlights, promises a rich tasting. On the nose, you will discover a complex aromatic profile, where notes of red fruits such as blackcurrant, blackberry and red plum harmoniously mingle, enriched by touches of vanilla, spices, tobacco and eucalyptus. On the palate, this wine reveals itself as enveloping and structured, supported by an elegant and refined tannic framework. Fermentation in steel tanks and prolonged maceration on the skins, followed by 12 to 18 months of aging, contribute to this complexity. The finish is long and persistent, leaving behind nuances of cocoa and myrtle.
This Maremma Toscana DOC, with its intense personality and aromatic richness, is a choice ally for your tables. I particularly recommend it with grilled or roasted red meats, where its structure and elegant tannins will pair perfectly. It will also enhance aged cheeses, creating a flavorful dialogue between their textures and its deep aromas. It is a wine that invites contemplation, ideal for an evening with friends or a special moment when you wish to explore the authentic flavors of Tuscany.
