750ml

SGD 129.00

92 points, Wine Enthusiast

Aromas of rose, new leather, red berry and wild herb shape the nose. The linear, racy palate shows finesse and energy, delivering red cherry, pomegranate, licorice, French oak and roasted coffee bean set against vibrant acidity and tightly wound, fine-grained tannins. It's still youthfully austere and needs time to unwind and fully develop. Drink 2024–2036.

  • Tannins: Firm and Grippy
  • Acidity: High
  • Sweetness: Dry

Tasting Notes: A youthful and structured wine with a moderately translucent cherry-red hue. The nose is initially reticent, offering a complex interplay of aromas. Sweet notes of ripe black cherries mingle with salty licorice candies, gamey meat, and a touch of tobacco. Beneath these lie subtle hints of redcurrant, licorice root, and a slight reductive note. On the palate, the wine is firm and sinewy, with a medium to full body. Flavors of tart dark and red berries dominate, accompanied by gravelly mineral tones, crunchy redcurrant, and ferrous notes of blood. The high acidity and ample, grippy tannins contribute to the wine's tight-knit structure. The finish is dry, firm, and long, with lingering flavors of raspberries, redcurrants, stony minerality, licorice, and a touch of sour cherry bitterness.

Discover the Winery: Poderi Boscarelli

Poderi Boscarelli, founded in the 1960s, is a renowned wine producer in the Montepulciano region. The estate, led by the Corradi family, is dedicated to producing high-quality Sangiovese-based wines, including the iconic Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. The vineyards, situated on a hilltop with southeast-facing slopes, benefit from optimal sun exposure and well-drained soils. The estate primarily focuses on indigenous Tuscan grape varieties, with Sangiovese as the backbone, complemented by Canaiolo, Colorino, Malvasia Nera, and Mammolo. International varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah are also cultivated. Winemaking at Poderi Boscarelli emphasizes traditional methods, including the use of wild yeasts and aging in small oak barrels. The wines are known for their elegance, complexity, and longevity. The estate's flagship Vino Nobile, available in both regular and Riserva expressions, offers a distinctive taste profile, while other offerings, such as the Nocio, showcase the diversity of the region's terroir.
