Fattoria Poggerino is one of Chianti Classico's most prestigious estates. Located in Radda in Chianti, the estate consists of 43 total hectares, of which 29 are certified organic vineyards planted mostly to Sangiovese. Poggerino’s vineyards are located at 400 to 500 meters, face south-southwest and are abundant with the rocky galestro soils for which Chianti is famous. The land used to belong to Prince Ginori Conti, a descendant of one of Florence’s oldest families. Floriana Ginori Conti inherited the winery from her father in the 1970s, and in 1980, with her husband Fabrizio Lanza, began making Chianti Classico with the Poggerino label. In 1999, she handed over the property to her two children, Piero and Benedetta Lanza, who had been managing it since 1988. All wines are made exclusively with estate fruit.

Poggerino's N'uovo Chianti Classico goes through the same grape selection process and fermentation in stainless steel like their regular Chianti Classico. N’uovo is then transferred into concrete eggs to age for 12 months, before being refined in bottle for at least eight additional months. High-toned aromas of stone fruit, graphite and tobacco leap from the glass. The palate is juicy and fresh, displaying a complex mélange of cherry and red plums marked with a touch of graphite. Sweet, persistent tannins help guide N’uovo toward a bright and lengthy finish. This is an excellent wine to pair with any pasta or pizza nights, but it is incredibly versatile, so don't hesitate to discover your own pairing.
