Sondraia Bolgheri Superiore DOC from Poggio al Tesoro is a prestigious red wine from the Bolgheri region in Tuscany, which has received significant recognition since its first vintage in 2003. This wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, sourced from carefully selected vineyards such as Via Bolgherese and Le Sondraie.
Color: Deep ruby red.
Nose: Intense and layered, with aromas of tar, bitter chocolate, compact oak, and abundant dark fruit notes such as black cherries and blackberries.
Taste: Full and elegant, with precise fruit expression, notable freshness, and young but very fine-grained tannins. The wine has a powerful structure and a persistent finish, indicating great aging potential.
Sondraia pairs excellently with grilled red meat, game dishes, leg of lamb, roasted veal, and aged cheeses. The wine shows best when decanted 1 to 2 hours before serving and served at a temperature of 16–18°C.
