Poggerino has quietly become a benchmark for traditional, soulful Chianti Classico. Tucked into the high-altitude hills of Radda, they farm organically, vinify simply, and let their exceptional Sangiovese sites speak with clarity and grace.
The 2023 is textbook Poggerino: aromatic and lifted, with bright cherry fruit, fresh herbs, crushed flowers, and a savory, iron-tinged core. It’s aged in large neutral casks and bottled unfiltered, giving it both transparency and texture.
Radda’s elevation and limestone soils lend a natural tension to the wine—there’s depth without weight, structure without austerity. This is Sangiovese at its most expressive and refined, offering a glimpse of what makes Chianti Classico (done right) one of Italy’s great terroir wines.
Drink it now with grilled meats or tomato-rich pastas, or cellar a few bottles to watch it evolve beautifully over the next decade.
