Poggio al Tesoro is the result of a joint venture between the Allegrini family of Verona, northern Italy and American importer, Leonardo Lo Cascio. This winery is located in the prestigious area of Bolgheri, a premiere appellation situated in the upper part of Tuscany's Maremma, south of Pisa and just two miles from the Tyrrhenian Sea. This 70 hectare property was acquired in 2001 by the Allegrini family. They brought in consultant winemaker Alberto Antonini to advise on viticulture and winemaking. 2003 was the first vintage.
