We can't help but love a real Chianti, and this traditional, medium bodied and classically proportioned Poggio Al Chiuso is a great example of the appeal.
If you're after a real savoury red for drinking, not just putting in a wine cellar, then this Sangiovse blend is just the ticket.

How's it taste?
Fresh and full-bodied, this wine is ruby red in colour, showing intense aromas and strength while young. The scent of fresh fruit mingles with the more complex aromas given by the perfect fruit ripening. Good acidity on the palate indicates a good structure and a typical Tuscan character.
How was it made?
"Poggio al Chiuso" Chianti is made with the area's typical grape varietals, since it was first made in 1971, it has guaranteed authenticity and full respect of the local winemaking tradition.
Grapes: Sangiovese 85% - Canaiolo 10% - Colorino 5%
Serving temperature: Serve at 16 - 18°C
The grapes are selected and handpicked, then the must undergoes skin maceration in concrete tanks for at least 20 days.
After separation from the must, the wine remains in old concrete tanks to complete malolactic fermentation to then age in the bottle for at least three months.

As a wine buyer, the first question people ask me is, ‘What’s your to favourite wine?’ Not a difficult question, right? Well, it’s not always that simple, as it depends on so many different factors such as; the occasion, the weather, or the food I’m eating. So, if you’re having trouble finding the right wine today, never fear, it happens to all of us! And to help make things easier, I have selected some of my personal favourites.
