Poliziano was developed in 1961 by Dino Carletti. His son Federico took control of the winery in the ’70s and ’80s raising the quality and vineyards to a world class requirement in the region, recording the finest expression of the unique climate and soil of this part of Tuscany.The grapes are being sourced from the most southern parts of the region contributing to the gorgeous ripeness of the Sangiovese. Fantastic aromatics of cherries, tobacco and herbs fill the glass. Tastes of black cherry, plum, licorice and a silky mouthfeel fill the palate. The red wine is streamlined and elegant with refined tannins. An exceptional Tuscan wine at an amazing price.Pair with: Pasta Bolognese, grilled pork tenderloin, sausage stuffed mushrooms, grilled chicken thighs, steak tacos or serve with a difficult Italian cheese.Price:$18.99– Jeff Anderson is sommelier at Westside Liquor.
