The 2008 Collerosso (Merlot, Cabernet Franc) is a gorgeous, fleshy wine loaded with dark fruit, mocha, espresso, spices and leather. It is a surprisingly open, generous wine for the vintage endowed with great balance and tons of class. Then again, the estate did not bottle their Montechiaro and Montebruno, opting to use all of their best fruit here, a decision that has paid off handsomely. This is one of the unqualified successes of the vintage. A vibrant, perfumed finish provides the perfect close to this highly enjoyable red. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2020. – Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate 90 points

Castello Poggiarello Collerosso 2008
Fattoria Poggiarello's name dates back to the 11th century. The Castle is nestled in the Montagnola foothills, just west of Siena in central Tuscan.The 12 hectares of terrain and wooded area have recently been brought back to life as a small organic farm: 8 hectares of vineyards, 2 hectares of olive groves and 2 hectares of woods.

The Vineyard's red soil is mineral rich of iron and calcium carbonate (a mixture of sand, silt and clay). The quality and prestigious IGT wines from this incredible terrain offer an excellent expression of aromas and flavours. The wine cellar is located within the foundation the old medieval castle. Ever since Fattoria Poggiarello has harvested its first grapes and made its first vintage wines, Poggiarello's terroir has displayed incredible persistence and complexity.
