In our stable of wines exclusive to KWM, Poggio Al Sole is like a favourite child; no one wants to admit they have one but secretly loves one just a little bit more. Poggio al Sole lies in the heart of Tuscany, in the bucolic countryside between Florence and Siena, between Tavarnelle Val di Pesa and Greve in Chianti. Documents in the archives of the nearby ancient abbey of Badia a Passignano testify to the claim that wine and olive oil were produced on this estate as early as the 12th century. Giovanni and Kathrin Davaz are the proprietors of Poggio al Sole, tending approximately 18 hectares of vineyards. The vines face south-east to south-west and are between 320 and 480 metres above sea level. Yields are kept low to improve quality, and the vineyards are certified organic.
1500 mlPoggio al Sole always does an exemplary job with their Chianti Classico. The wine pours a brilliant ruby with garnet highlights. The nose is expressive and wildly aromatic with notes of fresh cherry, earth and savoury herbs. On the palate, the wine displays a brisk acidity with silky soft tannins and a rich, textured mouthfeel. The finish is refreshing and lifted, highlighted by the gorgeous interplay of cherry pie, black currants, and spice. Enjoy it with a plate of finocchiona (cured meat seasoned with fennel seeds and pollen) and pecorino cheese, or pasta with fresh tomatoes and basil. 2022 turned out to be a great vintage for Tuscany, a fact that is reflected in the wine. This is such a brilliant food wine, and the pairing possibilities are almost endless.

The Champagnes from father-daughter duo Arnaud & Mathilde Margaine are a KWM exclusive, and they are exceptional. With vineyards based in Montagne de Reims, they specialize in Chardonnay (90%) although they also have a small plot of Pinot Noir. This small estate (7 hectares) was started by Arnaud's father (Bernard) in the 1950s and is organically farmed. The vines average 35 years of age and the Chardonnay is produced from a clone unique to the area.
