Made from a carefully selected vineyard site in Montecucco, it combines depth, structure, and freshness in a style that reflects both the warmth of southern Tuscany and the elegance of the grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby color with garnet hints at the rim, signaling both concentration and finesse. The nose is layered and inviting, with aromas of ripe cherry, plum, dried herbs, violets, tobacco, and a touch of spice and earth.\n\nOn the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with lively acidity, firm but well-integrated tannins, and a mineral edge that keeps the wine precise and energetic. The fruit is balanced by savory notes and a long, structured finish, giving it strong aging potential over the next 8–12 years, and possibly longer in a good cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePoggio Lombrone comes from ColleMassari’s Montecucco estate in southern Tuscany, an area known for its rolling hills, well-drained soils, and a climate that benefits from warm days and cooling influences at night. These conditions help Sangiovese ripen fully while preserving freshness and aromatic detail. The grapes are typically harvested by hand and vinified with a focus on expressing the character of the site, followed by aging in oak to build texture, complexity, and balance without overpowering the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Riserva pairs beautifully with Tuscan cuisine and hearty savory dishes such as grilled steak, roast lamb, wild boar, mushroom risotto, and pappardelle with ragù. It is best served at 16–18°C, and decanting for about 1 hour is recommended to allow the aromatics to open and the tannins to soften.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColleMassari is a respected Tuscan producer with a strong reputation for high-quality wines that reflect the character of southern Tuscany.
