As the intensity of fruit, flavour and alcohol increases, so does the ‘body’ and weight of the wine. Think of medium to full-bodied reds as the goldilocks zone, where ripe fruit flavours are balanced with underlying acidity, oak and tannins.

Poggio Anima is a joint venture between one of Tuscany's rising stars, Riccardo Campinoti of Le Ragnaie in Montalcino, and his U.S.A. importer Ronnie Sanders of Vine Street Imports. The Poggio Anima concept is straightforward: to source great vineyards from existing relationships and produce real wines which convey the ‘soul’ (anima) of each site and each grape variety. The wines are not ‘bulk’ wines or leftover juice, but rather they are the result of long-standing relationships with respected growers throughout Italy. In packaging the Poggio Anima wines, Ronnie and Riccardo wanted to focus on the omnipresent dichotomy in the world between good and evil, and the everyday quest for balance in all things, including wine! The Eastern ideology of Yin Yang is the core of this ‘balance’ in the Poggio Anima concept. Poggio Anima are real wines, from real places, made by real people.

The Poggio Anima white wines are named after religious archangels while the reds are named after fallen angels. Each wine was specifically named for the persona of the grape, region and style, and each wine is made from a single-vineyard and dominant single variety, and represents its indigenous place of origin.
