About This Wine
The 2022 Poggio Scalette Chianti Classico is a vibrant and expressive red wine, 100% Sangiovese sourced from high-altitude, stone-terraced vineyards in the Ruffoli area of Greve in Chianti. This vintage presents a bright ruby red color with a lively bouquet of red fruits like cherry, plum, and blackberry, complemented by subtle notes of orange peel, sun-dried tomato, tobacco, and a hint of spice.
On the palate, it is fresh and fruit-forward with a medium body and sleek, silky tannins that evolve through the finish. There’s a savory juiciness and a stimulating acidity that makes it a very food-friendly wine, perfect for pairing with dishes like rosemary roasted lamb, tomato-based sauces, or hearty stews. While approachable now, its structure suggests it will benefit from another year or so of bottle aging to allow its various layers to fully integrate.
