Description

Poggio Anima is a label that celebrates single varieties from single sites across Italy, focusing on a variety's home.

Here is a fantastic value Sangiovese from Campinoti, taken from a single vineyard near Siena. The name "Belial" is in reference to a Hebrew devil that is said to personify lawlessness, a tip of the cap to the renegade producers of the region who defied tradition in their invention of the famous "Super Tuscan" blends.

It's crafted in a fresher, modern style with minimal oak influence and a focus on freshness of flavour. For authentic, savoury yet smashable Sangiovese at this price, it's hard to beat.

    Great value

    Perfectly decent wine at a great price point. Nothing to sing and dance about, but nothing to grumble about either.

    Great wine, light and easy to drink

    Great wine, light and easy to drink

This is 100% Sangiovese sourced from a single vineyard near Siena, in the Chianti Colli Senesi zone, though not labelled as such. Winemaker, Riccardo Campinoti is a firm believer that the wine is made in the vineyard and when he found this one with mature vines (26-46 years of age) he knew he had something special. This is the third vintage from this site and the results are quite apparent. The grapes were hand harvested and fermented whole berry including 20 days of skin contact to extract color but not too much tannin. Fermentation, both alcoholic and malolactic occurred in stainless steel tank and the wine rested in tank with a small percentage seeing neutral wood for an additional eight months prior to bottling.
Dark ruby. Aromas of iris, rosemary & lavender, bright red cherries and mint explode from the glass. The youthful, easygoing palate offers juicy cherry, white pepper and clove hints alongside pliant tannins. This is a spot-on value that will drink well over the next couple of years./p>
