Description
Poggio alle Nane Maremma Toscana DOC 2018 Magnum: elegance and character signed by Le Mortelle
Poggio alle Nane is a Tuscan red of great personality, born in the Le Mortelle estate of the Antinori family in the heart of Maremma. The blend, based on Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, gives rise to a rich, enveloping, and complex wine, capable of uniting aromatic intensity and elegant tannic structure. In the magnum format, it expresses its evolutionary potential at its best and makes the choice even more interesting for collectors, enthusiasts, and special occasions.
Territory and wine style
The Maremma Toscana DOC is a dynamic area increasingly recognized for the quality of its red wines. Here, the vineyards of Le Mortelle benefit from a favorable context and a long production experience, with a strong focus on enhancing the terroir. Poggio alle Nane comes from dedicated parcels of the estate and interprets a modern style firmly linked to Tuscany, with an international profile in the Bordeaux blend and a clear territorial identity. The result is a structured, fine, and deep wine, designed to offer balance between fruit, spice, and substance.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red. The bouquet is broad and refined, with hints of black pepper, cloves, and licorice merging with notes of ripe blueberry, violet, and lavender. On the palate, it is rich, elegant, and enveloping, supported by vibrant tannins and a well-defined structure. The taste progression is harmonious, with a long and persistent finish that recalls toasted coffee and dark mint chocolate, leaving a sensation of depth and precision.
Recommended pairings
Poggio alle Nane pairs effectively with flavorful and structured dishes, such as beef fillet, braised meats, game, roasted lamb, and grilled meat cuts. Excellent also with Tuscan preparations rich in flavor, such as stewed wild boar, pappardelle with ragù, and aged cheeses. Its tannic structure and aromatic profile make it suitable for important dinners, where a wine capable of accompanying the dish without losing finesse is needed.
Serving temperature
It is recommended to serve Poggio alle Nane at a temperature of 16-18 °C. If possible, it is helpful to open the bottle a little in advance to enhance the bouquet's expression; in the magnum format, brief aeration can be particularly advantageous, especially if the wine is uncorked while still young.

Poggio alle Nane Maremma Toscana DOC 2018 combines the quality of the raw material, the signature of Le Mortelle Antinori, and the added value of the magnum format, ideal for special occasions, important tastings, and prestigious gifts.
