Looks a lot like Boletus edulis to me but I am not an expert on Boletus species. Maybe a TI can confirm.

Definitely in the porcini group - Check Boletus reticulatus.
Here is a good site for the European boletes:

Sorry to disagree Alan but i am 100% sure this one is B. aereus.

i also think its aereus, reticulatus has chestnut color of cap and this is more dark-grey.

Could be either or neither. B. aereus in my book has a chocolate brown cap, brown stem and pores turning cream. Those characters don't seem a great fit. The margin here isn't pale like B. edulis. B. reticulatus varies sufficiently to be a possible fit so what Alan said seems a better bet.

some book descriptions are not 100% correct and do not always match exactly what you find in the field. I can tell you for instance that you can find B. aereus with white stem, not very hard with young specimens. Furthermore, some books say that the white margin in the cap is exclusive of B. edulis, and it isn“t. this feature can be found sometimes also in B. aereus. You can even find B.aereus with "orangish" cap, it depends on the habitat.
From my experience, and B. aereus is probably the specie that i collect in greatest quantity i can tell without a doubt that this is indeed B. aereus. You will not find B. reticulatus with that cap colour. Do not mean to be stubborn, but i might not always be sure with the id of some species, but european species and mainly the ones that i collect, i am quite sure that my ids are correct.
Cheers
