Podere le Boncie (Giovanna Morganti)

5 Toscana Ciliegiolo Blend 2012

Giovanna Morganti: Podere Le Boncie. She's a fine and set apart winemaker in San Felice/Castelnuovo Berardenga. Her house is the cellar, her mystic garden the vineyard where she does home-grown her own sangiovese grapes and few others local vine variety (mammolo foglia-tonda colorino canaiolo) allowed in the Chianti Classico Appellation, with such a filial piety and discipline as they were kids in a kindergarden. "Le Trame" is the name of her A rated eldest child, a magnificent utterance of Tuscany through the wine. Here's instead, her declassified sangiovese under the IGT umbrella (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) called simply, 5 - with a touch of self-irony - which in terms of grades at the School would be C or D. I do adore this "slacker" and strapping "5" for the harshness sour inborn at the wine, a spontaneous expression of a very acidic and stoney soil too! — 10 years ago
