Lea & Sandeman review
Poggio Bestiale, is one of the most beautifully sited vineyards on all of the Tuscan coast, planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Given eighteen months in new Alliers oak this is a wine which really expresses the character of the vineyard. Rich and full bodied with very fine sweet tannins and an elegance and texture which makes it one of the best value wines of Tuscany.Other reviews and comments
A heady array of smoke, tar, scorched earth, rosemary and wild cherries emerges as the 2007 Poggio Bestiale makes its first impression. An exotic core of black fruit follows, struggling to emerge from a wall of powerful tannins. There is a hypnotic quality to the wine that is hard to fully capture. A last blast of dark fruit informs the powerful, brooding finish. Today the oak is a bit overwhelming but all that is needed is another few years in the cellar. This is another fine effort from Fattoria di Magliano. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019.
94/100
