  Cortonesi Poggiarelli (Red) 2018 - Highly RecommendedTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

  Slightly herbal, lots of black fruit on the nose, leading to saline, steely, inky mineral red fruit and firm grippy furry acidity. Tannins are firm but discrete, leaving the fruit to shine. Structure restrained and closed, leaving it balanced today but begging to be kept for a few years to open up and showcase its power and extraction.

  Tasted November 2022
