The 2010 Rosso di Sera is a 90-10 blend of Sangiovese and Colorino that sees 20 months of barrique. In keeping with the house style, the wine shows muscle and sheer power with abundant aromas of black fruit and exotic spice. Its texture is velvety and thick. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2025. This is a beautiful set of wines from Fattoria Poggiopiano and vintner Stefano Bartoli. Importer: Vinifera Imports; www.viniferaimports.com

The 2009 Rosso di Sera bursts from the glass with dark raspberry jam, flowers, mint, new leather and licorice. All of the elements are in the right place in this rich, concentrated wine. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2019. Fattoria Poggiopiano can be counted on to deliver some of the richest, most opulent wines being made in and around Chianti Classico.

The 2008 Rosso di Sera (Sangiovese, Colorino) is rather reserved in this vintage. Layers of black cherries, smoke, crushed rocks and tar emerge from this mineral-driven, vibrant Rosso di Sera. The 2008 isn’t a powerhouse, but rather a wine that impresses for its energy, vibrancy and focus. An explosive finish makes it hard to resist a second taste. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025.

I was quite taken with Poggiopiano’s 2006 Rosso di Sera, (90% Sangiovese, 10% Colorino). This opaque, full-bodied red flows with masses of super-ripe dark fruit layered with scents of new leather, graphite and French oak. The wine possesses superb density and richness in a full-bodied, intense style. The tannins from the oak remain rather firm and unyielding at this stage, but in a few years’ time the 2006 Rosso di Sera should begin strutting its stuff. The long, polished finish is that of a first-class wine. This is a remarkable effort from Poggiopiano. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2021.

The 2005 Rosso di Sera is 90% Sangiovese and 10% Colorino that spent 12 months in French oak. It is a deeply, colored, sumptuous wine imbued with the essence of black cherries, blackberries, tobacco, new leather and sweet toasted oak. This ample, caressing wine reveals outstanding depth and richness, with terrific overall balance and tons of personality. It is a notable effort in this vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020.
