This vintage offers a rich and complex profile, featuring aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, and red currant, complemented by notes of leather, tobacco, and a hint of spice. The full-bodied palate is supported by well-integrated tannins and a balanced acidity, providing a smooth and harmonious mouthfeel. The finish is long and refined, with lingering nuances of dark fruit and subtle earthy undertones.
Producer Information
Poggio Antico is an Italian wine producer in Tuscany, particularly known for its Brunello di Montalcino wines. The wine portfolio has a range of wines from the IGT Toscana appellations, from both traditional Tuscan varieties like Sangiovese and more international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Brunello is the most important variety for the company with three Brunello di Montalcino DOCG wines produced. In the winery, aging occurs in Slavonian oak casks with a majority of wines also aged in bottle prior to release. Grapes undergo a rigorous sorting prior to fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The Poggio Antico estate extends to around 200 hectares (500 acres) including woods, pastures and olive groves. Around 33ha (80 ac) are planted to vine, most of which is Sangiovese, with a small parcel of Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyards are some of the highest in Montalcino, on sunny, south-facing slopes at around 450 meters (1500 feet) above sea level. The hilltop breezes help dissipate fog and frost, and dry the grapes after rain, reducing the pressure of mildew diseases.
