Poggio al Sole Casasilia 2016 - 1,5l

Poggio al Sole Casasilia 2016 is a superb Tuscan red that brings together Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot in a polished, generous style. Bottled here in a striking 1.5L magnum format, it offers both presence at the table and the kind of quality that makes it ideal for special occasions or gifting. It is a classic expression of modern Tuscany, balancing regional character with a more international depth and richness.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-red color that hints at its ripeness and concentration. The bouquet is expressive and inviting, with layers of ripe dark fruit, warm spice, and a clear touch of vanilla from oak aging. On the palate, Casasilia 2016 is full-bodied and well-balanced, with soft tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The blend brings together the lively structure of Sangiovese with the rounder, smoother textures of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, giving the wine both depth and approachability. It should continue to drink beautifully over the coming years, though it already offers excellent harmony now.

Production
Produced in Tuscany, this wine reflects the warmth and character of the region’s vineyards, where sun exposure and well-drained soils help the grapes achieve ripeness and concentration. The blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot is harvested and vinified to preserve fruit purity while building structure and complexity. Careful oak maturation adds the vanilla and spice notes that complement the wine’s rich core of fruit.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent partner for grilled steak, roast lamb, game, and other richly flavored dishes. It also works beautifully with aged cheeses and hearty Tuscan-inspired cuisine. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant for about an hour if possible to help the aromas open fully and soften the wine’s structure.
