Reviewed November 2020Notes
Exclusively imported in small quantities, the 2016 Poggiarellino Brunello di Montalcino represents one of the most celebrated vintages in recent history. Made from 100% Sangiovese, it delivers intense aromas of ripe cherry, dried herbs, and subtle earthiness. The palate is elegant and structured, with refined tannins and remarkable aging potential. A benchmark wine from a legendary vintage. Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is built around Sangiovese grown in the hills around Montalcino, with mandatory extended aging before release, including time in oak and bottle. The 2016 vintage is widely regarded as one of the strongest recent years for the appellation, with favorable conditions for structure and cellar development.
