The 2020 Poggio al Tesoro Sondraia Bianco Costa Toscana IGT is a distinctive 100% Viognier from the prestigious Bolgheri region of Tuscany. Sourced from the Le Sondraie vineyard, it is crafted using a combination of stainless steel, terracotta amphorae and French oak to preserve freshness while adding texture and complexity. The nose is rich and expressive, offering aromas of apricot, white peach, citrus blossom and ripe pear, complemented by hints of Mediterranean herbs and subtle spice.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with vibrant acidity and a beautifully layered texture. Flavours of stone fruit, preserved lemon and ripe citrus are supported by delicate minerality and gentle oak influence, leading to a long, elegant finish. Aged on fine lees with regular bâtonnage and no malolactic fermentation, the wine balances richness with freshness and will continue to develop gracefully over the next 6–8 years.

Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding choice for customers seeking a premium Viognier with exceptional texture, freshness and complexity. Pair it with lobster, roasted chicken, creamy seafood pasta, pork loin or mature soft cheeses. Serve lightly chilled to showcase its layered aromatics and enjoy now or cellar over the next 6–8 years for added depth.

About the region

Tuscany

Tuscany, or Toscana, is Sangiovese country. The grape is high in acid and tannin, savoury rather than sweet-fruited, and it changes with altitude and soil: firm and red-fruited in the hills of Chianti Classico, broader and longer-lived at Montalcino where it becomes Brunello. On the coast at Bolgheri the rules loosen and Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot take over, and it is there that several of the wines once labelled Super Tuscan were made.
