Quercia Al Poggio 2016 – Chianti Classico Riserva

The nose is aromatic and offers complexity as well as a small intensity. It contains notes of blackberry, small wild red and small notes of scrubland associated with small fruits, black olive and a fine hint of vanilla, nutmeg and spices. The palate is fresh, fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers fat, a mineral frame, juiciness and tension. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry / fresh, crunchy wild raspberry and small notes of violet associated with touches of garrigue / black olive as well as small hints of cassis, dried tobacco, nutmeg and a subtle hint of clove. Tannins are well-built and structured, precise and very discreetly tight. Good length. Presence of an imperceptible hint of cocoa and dried almond on the finish / persistence.
