The Alicante Toscana IGT from Poggio al Tufo is born in the volcanic lands of Maremma, a region that imparts a unique minerality and a strong character to the grape varieties. This wine, made primarily from the Alicante grape, expresses on the palate a balance between structure and softness thanks to a skillful refinement that enhances its aromatic complexity.
In color, it presents an intense red with violet reflections, while on the nose it opens with scents of ripe red fruit, sweet spices, and subtle herbal notes, an expression of the Maremma terroir. The sip is enveloping, with soft tannins and a pleasant persistence reminiscent of licorice and plum.
Perfectly paired with grilled meats, aged cheeses, or rustic dishes typical of Tuscan cuisine, the Alicante from Poggio al Tufo represents an elegant and territorial synthesis for those seeking an authentic and personality-rich wine experience.
