Poggio al Tesoro Mediterra Toscana 2021
This wine was the clear star at a recent SuperTuscan tasting. It’s got everything you are looking for. It’s bright and lively with fine, chewy tannins, succulent blue and black fruits with a nutty dark chocolate finish that was as smooth as silk. Unsurprisingly, a wine that brings this kind of value has garnered impressive scores. It has 90 points from Wine Spectator, who noted “earth and underbrush accents that augment the fruity flavors,” 91 more from Vinous, who praised its “hugely appealing style, especially at this level,” and 92 points from James Suckling, who called it “very delicate with integration and balance.” It’s a showstopper, especially at this price.

92 Points, James Suckling
Dark chocolate, toasted walnuts, mocha and ripe dark berries on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied and structured with firm but very fine tannins. Shows notes of toasted cedar and bitter spices yet very delicate with integration and balance. Smooth and polished finish. Drink or hold.
91 Points, Antonio Galloni’s Vinous
The 2021 Mediterra is bright, effusive and wonderfully inviting. Crushed flowers, herbs, tobacco, spice and leather meld into a core of juicy dark blue/purplish fruit. The Mediterra offers all of the immediacy of Bolgheri but with tons of freshness more than opulence. It is a hugely appealing style, especially at this level, where wines are typically intended to be drunk essentially on release.
90 Points, Wine Spectator
This red is signaled by intense aromas of wild blackberry, black pepper, black olive and eucalyptus. Showing earth and underbrush accents that augment the fruity flavors, this firms up on the finish. Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2028.
