Poggio Al Tesoro Dedicato A Walter 2009

Intense ruby red in colour, with complex aromas of ripe red fruit, balsamic spices and an elegant toasted note. On the palate, it is exotic, spicy, full-bodied and harmonious, with ripe and well-developed tannins and a long, persistent finish.
Particularly suited for juicy, well-seasoned meat, either casseroled or braised, such as lamb, pigeon, duck, hare with red wine sauces. Perfect accompaniment to high quality, full-flavoured cheeses.Bolgheri’s terroir, with its proximity to the sea and the particularly favourable exposure to the sun, allows Cabernet Franc to thrive. In this microclimate, Cabernet Franc vinified as a single varietal enhances its spicy nuances and gains elegance and depth. The wine is named after Walter Allegrini and symbolizes the love he felt for this land.
