Il Poggiolo Terra Rossa (Red) 2018 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
Cedar and floral aromas, intense spice and cooked apples. Lovely delicacy of raspberries, cherries, fresh acidity - crisp, cool minerality. Tannins are firmly structural but a lovely and almost soft prettiness develops on the finish, with great structure and very firm acidity. Very pretty would love to come back in a few years.
