Description

The Alliance Vinum is a group of six Nobile wine producers - Salcheto, Poliziano, La Braccesca, Dei, Boscarelli and Avignonesi - dedicated to the rediscovery of the Nobile. The six oenologists coordinated their respective work, each producing a cru of DOCG Nobile 100% Sangiovese specifically for this project. This Poggetto di Sopra wine highlights the characteristics of its environment, recalling the clay soil on which it stands.
