Description
Poggio al Tesoro’s Dedicato a Walter is a striking Bolgheri Superiore crafted from 100% Cabernet Franc, showcasing the elegance and power that have made this Tuscan coastal appellation so highly regarded. Dedicated to Walter, it reflects both the personality of the grape and the exceptional terroir of Bolgheri, where sea breezes and warm Mediterranean light help shape wines of remarkable precision and depth.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-red color. The nose is layered and expressive, with elegant aromas of blackcurrant, damask rose, blackberry jam, eucalyptus, snuff tobacco, jujube, and Mediterranean scrub, all lifted by fresh vegetal nuances.
On the palate, it is powerful yet agile, combining impressive structure with finesse and tension. The wine feels concentrated and energetic, with a refined finish and the kind of balance that suggests excellent aging potential over the coming years.
Production
Poggio al Tesoro is rooted in the exceptional terroir of Bolgheri, on Tuscany’s coast, where a unique combination of soils, climate, and maritime influence creates ideal conditions for Cabernet Franc. The 2021 vintage was produced from carefully selected grapes and vinified to preserve both aromatic intensity and structural clarity, resulting in a wine that expresses the site with precision and poise.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats, lamb, game, and rich Mediterranean dishes such as herb-crusted beef, wild boar ragù, or mushroom-based preparations. Serve at 16–18°C; decanting for at least one to two hours is recommended to allow the aromas to open fully and the structure to soften.

Poggio al Tesoro is a respected Bolgheri producer known for crafting wines that capture the distinctive character of Tuscany’s coastal terroir. The estate has built its reputation on precision, quality, and a strong sense of place, and its wines are widely admired for combining concentration, elegance, and modern expression with the classic identity of the region.
