Description

A triple Tuscan: in its name, its style and its soul, a pure Sangiovese Grosso. The latest figurehead from the Villa Poggio Salvi estate, a Supertuscan born in the vineyards facing the castle of Monteriggioni. A wine that lays open more and more its well balanced personality and makes every tasting a real and honest pleasure. Plain in style and with an authentic taste - this is were you will find the fascination Tuscany’s all about.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1979
  • Oenologist: Vittorio Fiore
  • Bottles produced: 300.000
  • Hectares: 40
Amazed by the beauty of the landscape, Eng. Pierluigi Tagliabue decided to purchase the company in 1979, and began the restructuring of the estate. Today, Villa Poggio Salvi counts 21 hectares of vineyards in Montalcino, all planted with clones of Sangiovese Grosso. The optimum altitude, between 300 and 500 meters, the soil rich of clay and the breeze coming from the Tyrrhenian Sea, maintain the soil and the climate perfect for vineyards. In 1998 a new estate in the Chianti region, “Casavecchia”, has been added to the company, to produce Chianti Colli Senesi, Tosco and Lavischio, our IGT wines based on Sangiovese and Merlot.

Villa Poggio Salvi structure and modernity is a company that looks to the future with passion and competence, under the wise direction of Pierluigi Tagliabue and his grandson Winemaker Luca Belingardi.

In October 2023, Wine ENTHUSIAST, the most widely read wine magazine in the United States, awarded some of our wines with excellent ratings:

- Brunello di Montalcino Pomona 2018 (95 pts)
- Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2017 (94 pts)
- Brunello di Montalcino Vintage 2018 (94 pts)
