2022 Poggio al Tesoro Il Seggio Bolgheri

Poggio al Tesoro is a 70-hectare Bolgheri estate acquired in 2002 by the Allegrini family. All of the Poggio al Tesoro vineyards are located in “soprastrada”, the area east of the Bolgherese road considered the best vineyard site in Bolgheri. The soils here are complex and varied thanks to the mineral composition created by the Seggio stream from the nearby hillsides. 

‘Il Seggio’ is the name of the creek that runs through Bolgheri. The wine that bears its name is a Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot blend aged in 225 litre barriques for 15 months. It is structured, concentrated and fresh

Tasting note: This wine is intense ruby red in colour with aromas of fresh red berries and dark fruit nuances enriched with mineral and spicy layers. The red fruit characters follows onto the complex palate that combines elegant silky tannins and a lively clean finish.
