Critics reviews

Antonio Galloni 94/100

The 2021 Poggio Valente is fabulous. I can’t remember tasting a Poggio Valente with this much finesse. Rose petal, spice and red cherry fruit open in an effusive bouquet that is immediately appealing. Silky, medium in body and gracious, with finesse to burn, the 2021 shows what is possible within the appellation. I love its total class.

This all-Sangiovese wine is celebrating its 25th anniversary. I am told it's made with a Burgundian model in mind. The Fattoria le Pupille 2021 Poggio Valente offers good fruit concentration, freshness and an open-knit personality. The wine completed 20 days of fermentation with light work on the cap in terms of punch-downs and pump-overs in stainless steel. It then ages in tonneaux with only 20% new oak. There is plenty of red fruit character along with iris, blue flower and earth, and the tannins are present, albeit powdery. Elisabetta Geppetti says the challenge of making Sangiovese in this warm part of Tuscany is establishing a "point of light" in the wine.

About this wine

Tuscany

Tuscany

The IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) Tuscany wine classification was introduced in 1992 to allow winemakers more flexibility than the strict DOC and DOCG classifications. It enables using traditional and non-traditional grape varieties and experimenting with winemaking techniques and has played a significant role in developing Super Tuscan wines.
