Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino 2019

About This Wine

Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino 2019 stands out as a quintessential expression from one of Montalcino’s most revered traditional producers. Crafted entirely from 100% Sangiovese Grosso grown in the warm, southern microclimate of Sant'Angelo in Colle, this vintage captures the radiant balance and exceptional quality that defined Tuscany in 2019. Aged for three full years in large French oak casks followed by extended bottle resting, it marries serious depth and structure with effortless elegance.

Tasting Notes

The wine opens with a rich and layered bouquet of ripe black cherries, wild raspberry preserves, crushed stone, cedar, and tobacco leaf, complemented by delicate top notes of violet and dried Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied, seamlessly textured experience where vibrant red and dark fruit flavors interlock with fine-grained, chalky tannins. A driving core of fresh acidity and subtle orange peel nuance leads into a long, savory finish marked by lingering spice and refined mineral undertones.
