On the nose rich blackcurrant dark cherries
Vincent Millet and Eric Boissenot
But with a little more freshness (and obvious tannin) than the 2007
Full-bodied with great concentration
with a touch of corn in the mix
Val Delle Rose, Poggio Al Leone Riserva Morellino di Scansano 2021 Salt Rock On the nose rich blackcurrantPoggio al Leone presents a deep, intense ruby red colour with richness and depth. On the nose, it reveals a complex and expressive bouquet. Ripe red cherries, wild berries, and sun drenched plums are layered with nuances of dried herbs, violet, and a touch of sweet tobacco. Subtle notes of vanilla, spice, and toasted oak emerge from its time in barrique, adding depth without overwhelming the fruit.
