Poggiotondo wines from Tuscany

Poggiotondo is located in the province of Tuscany, a province visited by thousands of tourists every year. The Italian sun shines here in abundance. In summer, the rolling countryside can get quite hot. However, the climate is exceptionally well-suited to winegrowing, which has been practiced here for centuries. Many wineries have a history spanning many centuries. Tuscany is therefore the wine province par excellence.

In central Tuscany, you'll find the Poggiotondo winery since 1968, founded by Carlo Antonini. This fine man was a teacher, but he had a passion for agriculture and wine. So his hobby became his work. Right in the heart of cultural cities like Florence, Pisa, Lucca, and Siena, he discovered a historic estate. The same family still runs Poggiotondo today.

Chianti wines from Poggiotondo

Tuscany's flagship wines are undoubtedly Chianti. These wines have showcased the grandeur and splendor of Tuscany to the public. Sangiovese has clearly taken center stage in Chianti wines. However, other grape varieties are also permitted in Chianti wines. For example, the Canaiolo grape has found a place in Poggiotondo wines. These grapes emphasize the wines' signature: complexity and uniqueness.

The Poggiotondo vineyards are stunning, nestled in the rolling, almost mountainous landscape of Tuscany. Summers can be scorching here, but the grapes are resilient. Furthermore, Poggiotondo's production is entirely organic, further confirming the purity of its red wines.

What is the best wine from Poggiotondo

When you think of Poggiotondo, you think of Tuscany, Chianti, red wines, and Sangiovese. However, Poggiotondo also has an excellent white wine in its range. The Poggiotondo Vermentino may not be the crown jewel of the Poggiotondo collection, but it is an excellent wine if you don't fancy Chianti but still want to enjoy the Italian allure of Poggiotondo. Nothing wrong with that. Perfect for warm summer days.

When it comes to Chianti, Poggiotondo scores 100 points. Whether you choose the classic Chianti or the Poggiotondo Chianti Superiore, these wines are always a treat. However, the real treat is undoubtedly the Poggiotondo Chianti Riserva: pure craftsmanship with a lengthy oak aging process. Pure perfection. This is what we love. Authentic Italy, condensed into a bottle of liquid delight. All that's left for us to do is raise a glass.
