La Poderina Rosso Di Montalcino 2018 750 ML

This has a subtle nose suggesting dark-skinned fruit, violet and a whiff of moist earth. The linear palate is on the lean side, evoking pomegranate, star anise and sage alongside bright acidity and dusty, drying tannins.\n \n Producer Information\n Tenute del Cerro is an Italian wine producer with land in Umbria and Tuscany, covering around 600 hectares (1482 acres) of vineyard in total. This is divided into four wine estates: Fattoria del Cerro, La Poderina and Monterufoli in Tuscany, and Còlpetrone in Umbria. Fattoria del Cerro in Montepulciano is the core estate, and it is the largest private estate producing Vino Nobile di Montepulciano with 93ha (229 acres). The estate makes three wines under the Vino Nobile title – the regular wine, a Riserva, and the single-vineyard Antica Chiusina cuvée. Fattoria del Cerro also makes a Rosso di Montepulciano and a Chianti Colli Senesi as well as red and white wines under the Toscana IGT designation. Elsewhere in Tuscany, Cerro owns the La Poderina estate in Montalcino, which makes a standard Brunello di Montalcino, the Poggio Abate Riserva (in exceptional years), a Rosso di Montalcino and a sweet Moscadello di Montalcino. Near Pisa, the company owns Monterufoli, a country estate with vineyards that produce a Vermentino wine and the Monterufoli Val di Cornia red wine. In Umbria, the Còlpetrone estate produces two dry Sagrantino di Montefalco red wines, a sweet Sagrantino and a Montefalco Rosso. A second estate in Umbria is devoted to olive oil production.
