Description

The Tenuta Poggio Rosso's Phylika is a testament to the elegance and power of Tuscan Sangiovese. Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, the Poggio Rosso estate benefits from a unique terroir that imparts distinctive characteristics to its wines. Phylika is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, from grape selection to vinification and aging. The result is a wine that embodies the essence of its origin. Phylika is made using 100% Sangiovese grapes, which are carefully selected from the estate's vineyards. The wine undergoes traditional fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in oak barrels to develop complexity and structure. Aromas of ripe cherry and plum intermingle with hints of cedar and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a velvety texture and well-integrated tannins, leading to a long and satisfying finish. The Phylika is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes. Its bright acidity and firm structure make it an excellent match for grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces. It also complements hard cheeses and cured meats. It's a perfect companion to classic Tuscan dishes like Bistecca alla Fiorentina or Pappardelle al Ragù. The Phylika is not just a wine; it's an experience. It's a journey to the heart of Tuscany, a celebration of tradition, and a testament to the passion and dedication of the winemakers at Tenuta Poggio Rosso. Open a bottle, savor the aromas, and let it transport you to the sun-drenched vineyards of Tuscany. This wine, with its balance of fruit, acidity, and tannins, can be enjoyed now or cellared for further development. It is ready to be enjoyed, but will also reward patient cellaring of 5-7 years, during which time it will develop further complexity and nuance.
