Poggio di Sotto is an Italian wine maker with a great international reputation, especially recognised for its Brunello di Montalcino which won a BIWA (Best Italian Wine Award) in 2013. Located in southern Tuscany, the climate is hot, though refreshed by the sea breeze from the south-west. This makes the wine more intense and generous than those found in Chianti. In this DOCG, only Sangiovese is grown to produce single-varietal cuvées to be aged for at least five years, including at least two in oak casks. In the glass this wine has a ruby red colour, from which escapes a surprising bouquet of floral notes. It will become more complex after ageing with hints of herb, balsamic, and rose petal. Careful, though, as this one is made in limited quantities!
