Poggio Antico, Brunello di Montalcino 2016

Poggio Antico

Case Format: 6x75cl

The vineyards of Poggio Antico rest on the highest hills of Montalcino. The ancient and mixed soil is made up of calcareous rock and galestro (marl) forcing the Sangiovese grape to bring out its best expression, resulting in complex and elegant wines: the iconic Brunello. Poggio Antico is the soaring home of Brunello: an exclusive experience in the light and colors of the most authentic Tuscany.

Made with 100% Sangiovese according to the traditional method, this Brunello embodies all the characteristics of the variety. Long aging in the barrel and in the bottle endow this wine with structure and complexity: a great classic.

Walter Speller

Mid ruby. Deep savoury cherry nose with hints of pine. Racy cherry fruit on the palate with fine coating tannins. Long, vibrant and concentrated. Gorgeous length and freshness. (WS)

Ruby with a hint of brick at the rim. Smells a little acetic and balsamic. Slightly strange contrast between a touch of vanilla sweetness and then a rather tart, severe fruit profile. When I first tasted this I thought it was rather hard work but when I went back to it, it seemed much better balanced, complex and long. Both sweet and savoury and a complete whole. (JH)
