Sonoma County

Medium

Cork

The Petroni 'Poggio alla Pietra' 2017 shows the warmth of the vintage in this medium to full-bodied, dark-fruited, more tannic rendition of the estate's 100% Sangiovese wine from the Moon Mountain AVA above Sonoma Valley. Those powerful tannins are fine-grained and nicely integrated, and readers would do well to offer the wine a good decanting. Black currants and spiced plums are infused with savoury wild herbs, cigar box, and sandalwood. Organically farmed vineyards and olive groves surround wine caves. This Sangiovese comes from their Poggio alla Pietra estate vineyard, which translates to 'Hill of Stone'—founded by the late Lorenzo Petroni. The winemaker is New Zealand native Martin Mackenzie.
