    Sangiovese
    Dry

    The 2012 Morellino di Scansano Riserva Poggio Valente is a standout wine from Tuscany's Maremma region, crafted from 100% Sangiovese. Under the guidance of consulting enologist Luca D'Attoma, this vintage showcases ripe, succulent fruit with notes of dark berries, balsamic herbs, and exotic spices. The wine's soft, round tannins and bright acidity offer a dynamic, lasting finish. Aged in tonneaux, it reflects the region's terroir with balance and depth. Ideal for pairing with hearty dishes like rabbit porchetta or grandma's tripe, this wine will evolve beautifully through 2035.

    This is the first vintage made with the help of consulting enologist Luca D'Attoma. The 2012 Morellino di Scansano Riserva Poggio Valente Riserva shows signs of the warm vintage. The quality of fruit is ripe, succulent and sweet, but the mouthfeel is slightly shorter and a tiny degree thinner. In fact, this wine reminds me very much of Brunello di Montalcino from the same vintage. That is no coincidence. In fact, Poggio Valente is a valiant red wine from Coastal Tuscany that rivals the best of Montalcino in terms of quality and philosophy. One of Luca's big changes at the winery is that he is moving the wines gradually over to bigger oak containers. He finds that the larger containers add more depth and nuance, especially with a grape like Sangiovese. This vintage shows dark fruit with balsam herb, exotic spice, cola and grilled rosemary.

    With the 2012 we begin to see the impact of Luca D'Attoma, who arrived in 2011. Major changes he introduced include swapping the barriques for tonneaux, and making Poggio Valente into a single-varietal wine, rather than a blend with Merlot as had been the case in the past. Fragrant red fruits and spice lead to a vertical and sapid palate; clean and bright with juicy cherry accompanied by soft, round tannins.

    Beautiful ruby red with garnet riflections. The nose shows intence scents of red orange, black cherry and redberry jam. On the palate is soft, round and dynamic with higlights of chocolate and vanilla flavours. A prestistence that goes on for minutes.

    Poggio Valente is a cru vineyard which belongs to Fattoria Le Pupille since 1996, when Elisabetta decided to acquire it in Pereta, near Scansano. The project has set a focus on Sangiovese and within a few years the wine became another significant milestone with its expression of Maremma’s terroir.
