il Poggione Wine Dinner at Max a Mia

MAX A MIA Presents an Italian Winemaker DINNER

Featuring Tenuta Il Poggione, located in Montalcino, Tuscany

Special Guest Speaker for the evening

Alessandro Bindocci, Winemaker

As one of the founding members of the Brunello di Montalcino Consortium, Tenuta Il Poggione has built a reputation for making outstanding wines in a very classic style in Southern Montalcino for well over a century. Today, Il Poggione is a massive, environmentally-interlocked agricultural estate producing world-class wines, as well as olive oil, grains and other farm products. Wine, though, is definitely the focus, and much of the success of this estate is due to the commitment to older vines and sustainable winemaking practices – today lead by winemaker Alessandro Bindocci.

We are very pleased to welcome Mr. Bindocci and pair these fantastic wines with the cuisine of Max a Mia and Chef Stephen Lundgren
