    Poggio Civetta is a red wine produced in Greve in Chianti, Tuscany made primarily from Sangiovese grapes along with small amounts of Canaiolo and Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes are gently crushed and undergo maceration on their skins for 1-2 weeks to extract color and polyphenols before aging for 9 months in small and large barrels. The wine has a deep ruby-red color with aromas of wild berries, violets and spice and a dry, full-bodied palate with big tannins that pairs well with rich Tuscan dishes.
