Polissena 2020

Il Borro (hentet 11. okt. 2026): Valdarno di Sopra DOC 2020 Polissena is an act of love toward one of Tuscany’s most representative grape varieties: Sangiovese. The vineyard from which it is produced has a schist soil with excellent drainage, perfect for this varietal. It is an elegant wine that surprises with its determined yet refined character. Årgangen: The 2020 vintage was characterized by a dry and mild winter, followed by a spring with quite high temperatures until the end of May, interrupted by a series of copious downpours in June, which gave way to a very hot summer. A few thunderstorms at the beginning of September led to a fairly early harvest, resulting in excellent quality of the gathered grapes. Smagsnote (teknisk ark Polissena2020-scheda-eng.pdf): Profil: A full-bodied, well-balanced and elegant wine. Farve: A deep ruby red. Aroma: Notes of marasca cherries and peony lead to hints of sandalwood and juniper, followed by black pepper, liquorice and rhubarb. Smag: Well-balanced, with refined tannins and an elegant finish that leaves the mouth perfectly clean. Mad: meat-based Tuscan recipes, croutons, aged cheese, cold cuts, as well as game, especially hare, wild boar, chianina beef and cinta senese.
