Chianti Riserva Vigna di Conchiglie Poggiotondo 2021 is a single-vineyard red wine from calcareous soils near Cerreto Guidi. It opens with concentrated aromas of sour cherry, bay leaf and graphite, layered with subtle cedar from long oak maturation. The palate is taut and vertical, its firm tannic structure balanced by bright acidity that accentuates the wine’s mineral drive. With air, notes of black tea and dried herbs emerge, adding depth to the core of red fruit. The finish is persistent and finely textured, shaped by limestone tension and restrained extraction.
