Area:
Il Seggio is, in effect, the second wine of the estate and is named after the Seggio stream which runs through Bolgheri. The Cabernet Sauvignon element of the blend is grown in the Via Bolgherese vineyards, at just 56 metres above sea level. Here soils are deep, with coarse-grained red sand, that is gravelly and well drained with a layer of clay four feet below the surface. The other varieties are grown in Le Sondraie vineyard 35 metres above sea level where soils are clay with sandy silt and high concentrations of magnesium and iron.
Grape variety:
50% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Petit Verdot.
Producer:
The Poggio al Tesoro property in Bolgheri was acquired in 2002 by the Allegrini family, one of Italy’s top wine families, who prior to this acquisition had been renting a neighbouring vineyard.
The Bottle Shop rating:
Dry and medium to full bodied, this wine has bold cassis aromas and flavour, fine grained tannins, crisp acidity, and mellow vanilla oak.
