Named for the agapanthus flower—a symbol of selfless love—the wine reflects the character of a Tuscan estate centred on a 19th-century farmhouse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAgapanto 2022 has an intense, vibrant colour and an inviting profile led by aromas of red fruit. On the palate, it is youthful, full-bodied and fresh, with a naturally supple texture and a harmonious, lingering finish. Its bright fruit and freshness make it appealing in its youth; the available information does not specify a longer ageing window.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes are hand-harvested, then destemmed and crushed. Fermentation takes place in concrete tanks for around 20 days, helping to draw out aroma while preserving the character of each variety. The wine is aged for 12 months in second- and third-use barrels, adding structure and integration without overwhelming its fruit. The vineyards are in Bolgheri, Tuscany; further details on the specific soils and vineyard practices are not provided.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at around 16–18°C. Agapanto pairs well with charcuterie and cheeses, as well as red meat, pork and game. A brief decant of around 20–30 minutes can help open its aromas, though it can also be enjoyed without decanting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePodere Conca is an agricultural estate in Bolgheri, set around a 19th-century farmhouse and olive trees. Its wines are overseen by oenologist Linda Franceschi. The estate’s Agapanto takes its name from the flower featured on its label; the 2021 vintage received recognition from James Suckling, Decanter and Italian wine organisations, though those accolades apply to that vintage rather than the 2022.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Podere Conca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55405600342353,"sku":"XW-63016","price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/podere-conca-bolgheri-agapanto-2022","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
