Podere Le Boncie Le Trame IGP Toscana 2023 1.5L

Giovanna’s flagship wine “Le Trame”—formerly classified as Chianti Classico but proudly a Toscana Rosso since she wearied of the red tape and exited the appellation in 2012—comprises almost entirely Sangiovese, head-trained and densely planted, with splashes of interplanted indigenous varieties (Colorino, Mammolo, Foglia Tonda, and Ciliegiolo), all planted in the late 1980s. Fermented in open-top oak casks and aged in a combination of 15-hectoliter Stockinger botti and 500- and 600-liter barrels (all well used), Le Trame delivers powerful, punchy minerality and robustly healthy fruit that soars from the glass.
