Poggiotondo

Chianti producer balancing Sangiovese tradition with Syrah ambition.

Poggiotondo sits in Chianti, the heart of Tuscany's wine country, where Sangiovese thrives in rolling hills and limestone-rich soils. The winery's portfolio centers on the region's classic expression: Chianti Riserva Vigna Delle Conchiglie, a Sangiovese-based wine that demonstrates the variety's capacity for structure and aging potential. A Chianti Riserva blend of Merlot and Sangiovese rounds out the traditional offerings. Beyond regional convention, Poggiotondo also produces Syrah Marmoreccia, a Shiraz that reflects the winery's willingness to work outside Chianti's prescribed boundaries. The wines have been assessed by Decanter, Wine Spectator, and Wine Enthusiast, positioning the house within critical conversation. Poggiotondo's work suggests a producer engaged with both the discipline of Chianti's heritage and the possibilities of alternative varieties in Tuscan terroir.
