This is Il Borro's classic red wine for less formal drinking occasions. The 2015 Polissena is an IGT Toscana wine now, but I am told it will revert over to the Val d'Arno di Sopra appellation starting with the 2017 vintage. This wine is abundant and generous with ample layers of cherry and dark plum that peel back with pretty intensity. A pure expression of Sangiovese, the wine also offers elegant tones of wild rose, licorice, savory tobacco, rusty nail and a touch of dusty mineral. The ripeness of the fruit in this warm vintage is balanced out by the natural acidity of the grape.
