Tasting notes
The 2015 Cabernet Franc Poggio de' Colli is another compelling wine from Piaggia. Silky, aromatically precise and wonderfully nuanced, the 2015 has it all. Lavender, blueberry jam and spice are some of the many notes that develop with time in the glass. This powerful, resonant Franc from Piaggia is deeply satisfying from the very first taste.

A pure expression of Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Poggio de' Colli is an impressive effort. This wine offers more evidence of just how beautifully this French grape performs in the warmest pockets of Tuscany. The wine reveals a midnight black appearance with thick aromas of black fruit and marmalade. Like the other wines from this vintage, you are immediately aware of the sweetness and the ripeness of the fruit on display. Perhaps that warmth will not hold in the long run but this wine is drinking beautifully just as it is right now.
