Petruccino Orcia DOC 2021 - Podere Forte

Why the winemaker recommends Podere Forte Petruccino Orcia

The DNA of Podere Forte can also be seen here. Younger wine but with great personality. Of course the tannins, the woody and herbaceous component are well present, but the blend, although evolving, allows the qualities of a superior nectar to shine through. A true super Tuscans that is not yet very well known.

An extraordinary pure Sangiovese with still so much to express. A bomb made with an Amarone-style drying technique.

Characteristics of Podere Forte Petruccino Orcia wine

Petruccino Orcia a very high level of quality for a red wine with a more affordable price than its two cellar brothers. Ready, with a complex and elegant nose that opens with wood and smoke, tobacco, then turns to blackcurrant, pepper and spiciness. In the mouth the tannin is present and pleasant, clean, a great Sangiovese. Not invasive but complex red fruit, more wood and light smokiness with still an edge, a little herbaceous, star anise and thyme. Pleasant and non-trivial ending.
