Poggiotondo

A bright, translucent ruby red, this organic Chianti is the essence of "freshness." It’s packed with tart red cherry fruit, dried oregano, and a touch of leather. The acidity is "racy" and food-friendly, supported by fine, dusty tannins that provide a classic Tuscan structure.

Ideal for The Architect

Your palate is a "friction-seeker." You have a very high threshold for tannins, meaning you don't feel dryness as "harsh" - you feel it as "satisfying grip." Without that structural skeleton, wine feels like juice to you. You also enjoy Retro nasal Bitterness - the savoury, dark notes found in espresso and cacao. You don't want the wine to disappear; you want it to leave a physical footprint on your tongue for 60+ seconds (Length).
