Poggio al Tufo Rompicollo Maremma Toscana Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2021

2021 vintage.
Sangiovese 60 % and Cabernet Sauvignon 40 % from Pitigliano estate in Maremma, Tuscany with a southwest exposure.
Owned by Tommasi family since 1997.
Rompicolla is ‘breakneck’ but means tremendously steep and slippery slope…a risky adventure.
Soils are deep in volcanic tuff.
Stainless steel ferment and matured 1 year in 65 HL Slavonian oak casks.
Red cherries, raspberries, savoury spice, and floral.
Medium bodied but fresh and clean on the finish.
This wine loves food ….and I appreciate that.

Morellino di Scansano 2023

We had it a Lucali, a pizza restaurant in Miami. Medium dark rubi robe, nose of spices and black fruits. Medium bodied, fresh and with civilised tannins. Good stuff for the price and worked wonders with the excellent pizza. — 10 months ago

Elisabetta Geppetti is a rock star among Italian wine makers.
She makes a wine called Saffredi.
Cabernet Sauvignon dominant Bordeaux blend from Maremma, Tuscany.
It’s impressive.

Thank you Jamie ! First one we had from her if our memory is correct. We’ll look after her tuscan Cab from Maremma. Hope all is well.

E’ un vintaggio diverso del primo, 2015. Ma e’ molto buono abbastanza. E’ piu equibilibrato in gusto. So che e’ biodinamico, credo veramente questo domaine. Ho comprato tre botteglie in sconto alla fine di anno. — 6 years ago

Maremma Toscana Vermentino 2023

Light straw gold color with greenish highlights. Aromas of citrus fruits, orchard fruits and white flowers. Flavors of lemon, green apple, peaches, fresh herbs and grapefruit. Pleasant mineral note on the medium finish. Crisp acidity and quite clean. Savory and fresh tasting. Thanks for sharing, Chris B! — 5 months ago

Vento Maremma Toscana IGT Vermentino

Terre di Talamo – Vento Vermentino 2024
Toscana IGT, Maremma – Italy 🇮🇹

Overview
Crafted from organically grown Vermentino, this white reflects the Tuscan coast’s maritime influence. The IGT classification allows the estate flexibility while still showcasing the grape’s tension and vibrancy from Maremma’s sun-drenched vineyards.

Aromas & Flavors
Enticing notes of white peach, broom flowers, and a saline iodine edge mix with ripe tropical fruit—mango and papaya. It feels Mediterranean to its core, with both floral charm and coastal freshness.

Mouthfeel
Vibrant and tense, marked by crisp acidity and a light, tingling texture that keeps it energetic. The finish is silky and elegant, with a mineral snap that invites another sip.

Food Pairing
Perfect alongside grilled shrimp, seafood pasta, or even a tomato-based fish stew. Its brightness also makes it an easy pairing for mozzarella-based salads.

Verdict
A lively Tuscan white that proves Vermentino shines under the IGT umbrella. Clean, crisp, and expressive, it’s both refreshing and distinctive—ideal for warm-weather sipping. Cheers!

Poggio Verrano

Dròmos Maremma Toscana Super Tuscan Blend

On the nose a stable, dark fruit, wet leaves, licorice. A big wine in other words, this Super Tuscan blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 15% Alicante, 10% Sangiovese and 5% Cabernet Franc. On the palate there is softness, round, dark fruit, some tobacco. A lively wine with a bite. Great surprise. — 5 years ago
