2023 Poggio del Papa

Our Poggio del Papa pays tribute to the red wine blends found in the Tuscany region of Italy. Primitivo used in the blend was sourced from mid-valley vineyards where the slightly warmer microclimate allows the grape to maintain good structure and natural acidity, a key characteristic of the varietal.

This is a savory, food-friendly wine that pairs well with Italian pasta dishes but is versatile enough to go with just about anything.

Tasting Notes

The 2022 Poggio del Papa is a polished red wine with lively flavors of cherry, wild berry, fresh herb and mineral that harmonize beautifully. With good density and a fleshy texture, the wine is supported by light, firm tannins and lively acidity.

Winemaking

The dry season resulted in grapes being packed with flavor leading to powerful, concentrated wines. Small amounts of Primitivo, Merlot and Sangiovese, sourced from slightly warmer, mid-valley vineyards, add lush fruit and juicy plumpness to the wine. Fruit was sourced from the cooler southern regions of the valley with the right soils and growing conditions for this signature grape.
