One of our top selling wines. In fact, Jancis Robinson has noted that it's, "possibly California’s best-value wine of any colour."

A pleasantly bright and lively red wine, plump with blackberries and black cherries. Secondary notes of wild mint, dusty earth and even a hint of mocha provide an alluring, grounded experience in the glass. Comforting and irresistibly familiar, this is one of the original and best known red blends produced in California. A ‘drink now, enjoy often’ wine that can easily be taken more seriously if the moment happens to demand.

Younger, more accessible version of the Brunello, but already with an excellent structure and a great personality, Rosso di Montalcino is a very important wine for Tenuta Il Poggione.

Produced entirely from Sangiovese grapes, sourced in the estate's younger vineyards, Rosso di Montalcino is aged in large casks and barriques before a period of bottle aging. The wood aging, although not obligatory for the production of Rosso di Montalcino, tones down the tannins typical of a young Sangiovese and gives this red wine a complexity of aroma and structure that make it a great "Young Brunello".

Intense ruby red colour. Fruity bouquet with red berry notes. Very well structured, yet soft, long-lasting flavour with smooth, velvety tannins.

The wine is light in body, with a medium finish and pairs perfectly with a variety of lighter dishes. 

 

The fruit for this Pinot Noir is primarily from the Delta region of California and is fermented in closed-top fermenters. A small portion is aged in seasoned barrels to impart slight oak characteristics to the wine, but most is kept in stainless steel in order to stay true to the wine’s lighter, food-friendly style. By fermenting and aging the majority of the fruit in closed stainless steel, we are able to retain the delicate fresh fruit aromas. This Pinot Noir, like many of the world’s finest wines, requires minimal handling.

This 100% Pinot Noir cuvée reflects the cool and windy microclimate of the Sonoma Coast AVA. The climate and terroir here provide ideal conditions for low yields, equating to more flavor intensity and longer hangtimes. Cooler temperatures allow Pinot Noir grapes to slowly reach maturity while retaining their natural acidity and preserving the bright flavors of red cherries and raspberries. We ensure the elegant expression in this Pinot Noir by aging in large neutral oak casks, stainless steel, and older French oak barrels to keep new oak flavors to a minimum. Lively acidity on the finish makes it an ideal accompaniment to grilled fish and fowl or barbecued meats.

This wine pairs nicely with lamb, duck, even grilled fish, and will improve with additional cellaring for 2 to 5 years.

 

93 Points, James Suckling

Dried strawberries with bark and fresh-mushroom undertones. Black-tea notes, too. Full-bodied, yet tightly wound with firm tannins that frame the wine nicely. Soft, creamy tannins. Drink or hold.

CABERNET FRANC, merlot

Located at an altitude of 80 metres on a rich, diversified terroir, the Merlot and Cabernet Franc grapes are rigorously sorted and selected to produce a typical Bordeaux wine. The wine is vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats and matured for 8 to 14 months in stainless steel and concrete vats. A fruity, rich wine, with a beautiful ruby-red colour. Delicate notes of red and black fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry, cherry) enhanced by a hint of woodiness. Balanced on the palate, the attack is full bodied and pleasant. Tannins are silky and delicate with fine aromatic freshness.

90 Points, Wine Enthusiast

An aroma with a touch of chocolate and with fresh acidity and spice give complexity and a juicy character. The wine has depth, with its black-currant aftertaste. Drink from 2025.

Full-bodied fleshy grenache noir releases all expression its power in this shimmering wine. Marked tannins and structured body with great aptitude for aging. 

 

94 Points, Wine Enthusiast

This is a voluptuous, mouth-coating Grenache augmented by smaller proportions of Syrah and Mourvèdre. Its black plum and mulberry flavours are intensely ripe and juicy, but it's a nuanced wine accented by flecks of peppery spice, espresso and violet, and a upright streak of acidity that anchors the finish. Approachable young, but should improve further well through 2035

Nebbiolo

Produced with grapes from the same vineyard from which we obtain our Barbaresco, it has all the character and elegance of the great Nebbiolo, with intense and very fine aromas of flowers and small ripe fruits. Fresh and pleasant on the palate, with the typical tannic astringency, it is ideal with grilled foods, white and red meats, medium-aged cheeses. Brilliant ruby red of medium intensity. Clear and intense fruity scents of strawberry, raspberry, black cherry and cherry. Fresh, lively, harmonious and balanced mouthfeel that is medium-bodied and pleasantly tannic.

The Langhe Nebbiolo Martinenga shows delicate fiber and a thin veiling of small forest fruit, licorice and rain-washed stone or cement. Those small details converge to create a very elegant and polished expression of Nebbiolo. For its accessibility and drinkability, I highly recommend this pretty wine.

Winemaker Notes

The originality of our cuvée Mozaik is an assembly of Cabernet franc from two great terroirs and subsoil of Anjou: schist of Anjou “black” and limestone of Anjou “white”. The grapevines are cultivated in organic farming which has been converted to biodynamic farming. In order to get a gentle extraction of aromas and tannins, grape maceration is soft and smooth. The fermentation takes place in tanks and the aging has been done in neutral French oaks. A drop of sulfur is added before bottling to preserve the purity of our wines.

A garnet red color,. The bouquet is mixed with aromas of red fruit and black fruit. The mouth-feel is structured with beautiful acidity and a little tannic.

On the old-school side, with a nice grippy structure and a swath of warm earth holding down the fort, while the core of red and black currant reduction notes unwind slowly. Packs heavy tobacco and cast iron on the finish. Best from 2025 through 2034.

 

94 Points, Jeb Dunnuck

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley, which includes the addition of 7% Petit Verdot and 2% each of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, pours a deep, nearly opaque blackish red hue. Its classic aromas of toasted cedar, black currants, fresh leather, and tobacco leaf are followed by a full-bodied red with good energy and balance throughout. It offers ripe tannins, a fine, soft texture, and ripe black cherry, fresh violets, and tea leaf. It’s a beautifully expressive wine with great drinkability.
