Expert Rating:
4.0
Poggio Anima Belial Sangiovese Toscana is a distinguished wine, exclusively crafted from 100% Sangiovese grapes cultivated in a single vineyard near Siena, within the Chianti Colli Senesi zone, though not explicitly labeled as such. Guided by the expertise of winemaker Riccardo Campinoti, who strongly believes in the vineyard's influence on wine quality, this particular site, boasting old vines aged between 26 and 46 years, holds a special place. The hand-harvested grapes undergo whole-berry fermentation, including 20 days of skin contact, emphasizing color extraction over excessive tannins. Fermented in stainless steel tanks, both alcoholic and malolactic, the wine matures in stainless tanks, with a small portion resting in neutral Slavonian big barrels for eight months before bottling. This Sangiovese expresses the essence of its terroir, delivering a harmonious blend of fruit, structure, and elegance.
