Rich, shiny purple red with a light rim. Opens on nuances of fine plum and date, then some red bell pepper and clove, leather and humus on the second nose. Creates a juicy feel on the palate, with good weight and fine texture, quite dynamic in the course, dense, harmonious, reverberates for a long time.
About POGGIO AL LUPO
Poggio al Lupo - 'Hill of the Wolf' - was founded by Antonio Moretti of Tenuta Sette Ponti in the Tuscan coastal region of Maremma in 1999. Historically Maremma was notoriously 'savage' - wild, rugged, marshy, and isolated - which presumably inspired the excellent name for the magnificent property, so different from pastoral Central Tuscany. The region is warm and dry, benefitting from cooling breezes from the Mediterranean.
