Making its debut with the 2015 vintage, Podernovi is a truly elegant Brunello that is more austere in style, showcasing freshness over concentration. "To craft a terroir-driven, vineyard-designate wine is unique endeavor entirely; I must work as an artisan of few tools. It requires my total attention. Focus is everything. It is a far greater challenge but one that offers greater rewards." Riccardo Fratton, San Polo Winemaker

This red starts out with bright cherry, strawberry, rose hip and chalky mineral flavors, revealing orange peel and Mediterranean scrub accents as this develops on the palate. Dry, leaving a chalky sensation on the superlong finish. Best from 2026 through 2045. 833 cases made, 166 cases imported.

The light nose features both fruit notes of strawberry and cherry and vegetal aromas of fennel and fresh soil, along with a light woodiness. On the palate, a smear of strawberry jam receives a dusting of herbs, while refined tannins and positively boiling acid bolster a flinty, metallic undertone.
