There are subtle hints of clove and toasted spice on the mid-weight close. \u003cb\u003eDrink Date:: \u003c\/b\u003e2024 - 2035\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eProducer Notes:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt was Il Poggio vineyard, way back in 1962, that heralded the start of Castello di Monsanto’s journey in wine production, with the first harvest overseen by founder Fabrizio Bianchi. Still to this day, the company’s most iconic bottle, Il Poggio, is the first Chianti Classico to feature the name of the specific vineyard from which it comes. White grapes were removed from the recipe in 1968. Il Poggio is the source – thanks to massal selection – of all the Sangiovese, Colorino and Canaiolo vines in the winery’s other vineyards. Over 100,00 bottles have been produced and all of them spend time aging in the castle’s historic cellar, showcasing the wine’s stunning capacity for aging.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chianti Classico","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42333466067078,"sku":"EM-MonsantoIlPoggio","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0338\/0543\/files\/CastellodiMonsantoIlPoggio.png?v=1763818830","url":"https:\/\/www.winesolutions.com\/products\/castello-di-monsanto-il-poggio-2019","provider":"Wine Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
