Il Poggiones Rosso di Montalcino is dark and youthful, with nuances of blackcurrants and licorice, balanced by ash-gray stone.
Silky and enveloping with a salty core of minerality and bright acids, followed by tart red berries. The wine finishes long and lightly structured, yet remains fresh and invites a short stay in the cellar before it can fully reveal its charm. True to the house style, a truly straightforward and captivating Rosso.

Il Poggione
The history of the winery, as we know it today, begins at the beginning of the 19th century, when Lavinio Franceschi bought some land on the hills descending to the Orcia Valley near Sant'Angelo.
Today, the impressive estate covers more than 600 hectares, of which 125 hectares are planted with vines. The well-known international wine guides have been showering the winery with praise for its consistently high quality for many decades. About 60 hectares of vineyard area are authorized for Brunello. In the fifth generation, Livia and Leopoldo Franceschi now own the estate, while the management of the winery has been entrusted to the prudent director Fabrizio Bindocci for over 30 years.
The well-ventilated soils, the southwest exposure of the vineyards, and the influence of the cooling air currents from the Orcia Valley ensure, in most years, an invigorating, finely structured, and silky Brunello that is often ready to drink after just a few years and unfolds its full potential. The two wines Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino are absolute "blue chips" and ennoble every wine shelf.
