Banfi Poggio Alle Mura Rosso di Montalcino 2022
Fresh and fruity wine with a ruby red colour. Complex and fruity bouquet, with ripe cherry and blackberry notes, well combined with spicy hints of liquorice and tobacco. A wine with a broad and enveloping structure and a long and attractive mouth feel on the finish.

The Sangiovese is from a combination of internally selected clones, dating from 1982.

Founded in 1978 by the vision of Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani, Banfi represents a marriage of winemaking passion and technological innovation.Through collaboration with Ezio Rivella, one of Italy's most eminent winemakers, the land purchased in Montalcino was transformed into a crucible of quality and potential. The acquisition of the historic Piedmontese winery Bruzzone subsequently further enriched the portfolio, integrating the wine tradition of Piedmont into the Banfi world. Banfi has obtained the Equalitas certification both at organisational and product level (for some specific productions). ‘We see a global and connected world, where differences are prosperity. The products of our land, to be defended and enhanced, are the best expression of human labour and ingenuity’. ‘Always pioneers, we value research and people, respecting the territories in which we work. For a better wine world.’ Cristina Mariani-May – third family generation and CEO of Banfi.
