Poggio Bonelli

Fresh, fruity Chianti with a lot of esprit and drinking flow. Smells of cherries and red currants, harmoniously round on the palate with lively acidity and well-dosed tannin. SUPERIORE.DE

"A firm and layered red with blackberry and fresh-mushroom aromas and flavors. Some dried flowers, too. Medium to full body, round yet chewy tannins and a fresh finish." James Suckling

Light straw yellow with golden reflections. Floral bouquet of acacia flowers and lemon blossom with fruity notes reminiscent of exotic fruits and yellow-fleshed peaches, citrus peel in the background. Warm and round on the palate with a fresh and persistent finish, animating drinking flow. SUPERIORE.DE

Dark ruby red. Opens with aromas of dark cherry, plum, spices and Spanish cedar. Very seductive also in the taste the delicate blackberry note, which again mixes with tobacco, minerals and well-integrated wood. The final is fresh with a precise acidity and again an intensely spicy length. Every year, the Chianti Classico from Poggio Bonelli is very attractive, stylish and on the pulse of time. SUPERIORE.DE

Sensual bouquet of aromas of ripe raspberries and sour cherries, plus earthy and spicy nuances, coffee, chocolate and tobacco. Plump and full-bodied on the palate, excellently structured with silky tannins and a long final. Excellent price-quality ratio in a small edition. SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep dark, rich ruby red. On the nose of ripe plums and lush Amarena cherries, slightly animal-spicy, dried tomato and leather. On the palate with pressure and salty fruit, shows tightly woven and presses richly on the palate." Falstaff

"The 2018 Chianti Classico Riserva shows a deep dark concentration. Blackberries are followed by pencil traces and dark tar, and the wine is probably more spicy and mineral than fruity. The bouquet shows depth and darkness. At the beginning the bouquet is not very expressive, but with time it arrives. At the end it has great density and power." Wine Advocate

"Balanced aromas of ripe red and black fruits with some interesting notes of expresso and squid. Full-bodied with firm, fruity tannins and tasty red and black fruits. Also baking spice. The overall balance makes this wine so enjoyable." James Suckling

On the nose, noble, typically Tuscan notes of cherries, blackberries, violets and spices. Exceptionally complex, multi-layered and excellently structured on the palate. Gripping tannins, intense fruit and pleasant acidity are already in perfect harmony. The drinking pleasure builds nicely and increases in the long final. For us, it has been the attractive alternative to Antinori's famous Tignanello for years. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of dried cherries, bark, mahogany and porcini mushrooms. Lemons and herbs, too. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and tangy acidity. Juicy, savory and supple." James Suckling

"This blended red is Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon in a supporting role. The Poggio Bonelli 2018 Poggiassai is velvety, saturated and rich with dark fruit, cherry liqueur, barbecue spice and grilled herb. The wine shows a pretty dark color and thick concentration to complete what is ultimately a very contemporary winemaking style." Wine Advocate
