Tenuta Pennita's Poggio al Monte extra virgin olive oil is a blend of Correggiolo, Nostrana and Ghiacciola. It is a limpid, yellow oil with green reflections. The nose is characterised by vegetal notes of tomato and artichoke. In the mouth the marked bitterness and spicy tone emerge. The correspondence of the olfactory sensations is very pleasant.
Fontodi's Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is the result of an accurate blend.
Alongside 90% Sangiovese, the absolute protagonist of the Tuscan terroir, we also find 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, an international grape that has amply demonstrated its ability to achieve excellent levels of quality within the regional borders.
The grapes, cultivated on 40 year-old plants in vineyards facing south-west, are harvested and brought to the winemaking facilities, where they ferment spontaneously thanks to the presence of indigenous yeasts in stainless steel containers, macerating at a controlled temperature for 3 weeks. The wine is then aged for 24 months in 50% new Troncais and Allier barriques. Exceptional!
Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva Hatteso Garbole. Three-month drying of the grapes, in wood for 72 months and develops in the bottle for at least a year. Powerful, structured, strong and smooth, it develops great balance between these elements. Colour and depth awaken an echo in our body. Light enhances the form, gives luminosity and reflections that involve the observer. Concentration and purity of matter for nuances with infinite meanings. Balance between strength, power, structure and softness that fluidly amalgamate to indulge in pleasure and sensory complexity.
Synthesis and fusion of opposites that attract each other in the search for harmony of form and expression. Evolutionary capacity and resilience to the passage of time.

The 33 Vendemmie of Castellare di Castellina is a blend of three great wines produced by Castellare composed by 35% I Sodi di San Niccolò, 33% Poggio ai Merli, and 32% Coniale. I Sodi di San Nicolò, Poggio ai Merli and Coniale: the best of the company's production unites in a blend, to give origin to a sip of great character, in which consistency and power harmonize with refinement and elegance.
What we find in the glass is a red of great level, which is aligned with the high standards of all other labels branded Castellare di Castellina. It rests for two long years in French oak barriques, and is completed with 18 months of bottle ageing.
A wine not to be missed!
Wine obtained from vineyards about 30 years old with a planting density of 10,000 vines per hectare at an altitude of 400/600 metres above sea level. The yield per hectare is 30 hectolitres.
The land is not subjected to any kind of fertilisation, but is only treated with clay, propolis and grapefruit seed extract. The grapes are harvested in 40 separate parts.
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in 40hl steel tanks. Ageing takes place for 8 months in second, third and fourth passage French oak barriques and 10 months in cement.
The result is a complete, mouth-watering and authentic wine with an impressive drinking capacity. It is a pleasure to follow the interweaving of its notes and be seduced by its precise tannins, perhaps accompanying it with red meats.
