ABOUT THE WINE
Poggio Ginepri is crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, grown in the coastal hills of the Alta Maremma, where proximity to the Tyrrhenian Sea lends brightness and lift to the ripeness of the fruit. In 2022, warm days and cool nights helped achieve perfect phenolic balance. The grapes were vinified separately in stainless steel to preserve purity of fruit, followed by aging in a mix of second- and third-use French oak barriques for 8 months, lending a gentle framework of spice and roundness. The wine opens with aromas of black cherry, wild herbs, and cocoa, with a smooth palate marked by dark fruit, soft leather, and a touch of Mediterranean salinity. Approachable now, its ideal with pasta rag, grilled meats, or aged pecorino.
