Fantastic value from the famous Poggio al Sole winery in Tuscany, Italy. A versatile red wine that pairs with everything from pasta with tomato sauce to takeout pizza loaded with cheese and toppings. Sangiovese wines are made to go with food, and this one is no exception. It's a blend of 70% sangiovese, 15% merlot, and 15% cabernet sauvignon, meaning it's a youthful Super-Tuscan! Bright purple, good structure, juicy, silky soft tannins, caressing and elegant on the palate, subtle, lasting finish. Try with baked cannelloni, pizza, or a fresh tomato salad Organic and vegan friendly!
750 mlThis wine impresses with plenty of ripe, sweet fruit that gently coats the palate. Although this wine was vinified as consistently dry, it convinces with a juicy texture while remaining pleasantly light on the palate. The structure is characterized by excellent harmony, leading into an elegant finish. A red wine that possesses depth without being heavy. Serve lightly chilled in the summer months.
Winery Pairing Suggestions
Braised meats, pizza, pasta, fried mushrooms, summer vegetables. A pleasant wine for everyday.

Poggio al Sole is known for its excellent Chianti Classico, so Johannes Davaz was initially reluctant to plant Bordeaux varietals on his hill in Tuscany. But he can't argue with the results: the Poggio al Sole Ponente. This IGT Rosso Toscana (Super Tuscan) is made from 1/3 each of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Look for intense aromas and overall freshness. The taste is warm with notes of ripe fruits. Round and complex with ripe tannins, it shows hints of spice and minerality. Perfect to pair with Florentine Steak. Organic and vegan friendly!

There's not a lot of Chardonnay planted in Tuscany, being a French transplant and all, but this example from one of our favourite Tuscan producers makes you wonder why they don't plant more. While this organic wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation, it's kept on the lees for an extended period for added complexity. Expect a lively and fresh white wine that can pair with goat cheese, arugula pizza, salads, or all on its own on a summer day when you need a lift!
