TASTING NOTES: Another magnificent 2008, this tentative blend of the estate's flagship 2008 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio al Vento is impeccably layered from start to finish. I hope I can accurately convey with words just how vivid and alive the 2008 Poggio al Vento is, such a rarity for a vintage in which most wines are one-dimensional. Tar, smoke, licorice and menthol cloves meld into a finish laced with baritone depth. The Poggio al Vento is one of the very few 2008s I can say I am truly excited to follow over the coming years, and in the case of this wine, decades. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2048.

Brunello di Montalcino

About Brunello di Montalcino

Brunello di Montalcino, a distinguished red wine from the Montalcino region in Tuscany, Italy, stands as a pinnacle of excellence in the world of Italian wines. This renowned wine holds the prestigious DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita) designation, signifying its superior quality and adherence to stringent production standards.

Crafted exclusively from Sangiovese grapes, locally known as Sangiovese Grosso or Brunello, this wine encapsulates the unique terroir of Montalcino. The region's diverse microclimates, warm days, and cool nights contribute to the development of complex flavors in the grapes. Soils, ranging from limestone to clay and marl, further enhance the wine's character.

The meticulous winemaking process is a hallmark of Brunello di Montalcino. The wine undergoes an extended aging period, spending a minimum of two years in oak barrels and an additional four months in the bottle before release. For the Riserva designation, the aging period is extended, resulting in wines of exceptional depth and complexity.

Brunello di Montalcino is characterized by its bold, full-bodied nature, presenting a deep ruby red color with garnet hues as it matures. Aromas and flavors encompass a spectrum of dark cherry, blackberry, plum, leather, and tobacco, with occasional floral and herbal notes. The wine's structure is marked by high acidity and firm tannins, contributing to its impressive aging potential.

One of the distinctive features of Brunello di Montalcino is its remarkable ability to evolve and improve with age. Well-crafted Brunellos can gracefully mature in the bottle for several decades, gaining complexity and developing enticing tertiary aromas over time.

In addition to its individual character, the region has implemented a vineyard classification system, with certain producers designating specific vineyards as "Brunello di Montalcino cru" sites, recognized for their exceptional grape quality.

Brunello di Montalcino has rightfully earned a place among Italy's finest red wines, captivating the palates of wine enthusiasts and collectors worldwide. Its harmonious blend of power, elegance, and longevity makes it a symbol of Tuscany's winemaking excellence and a timeless expression of Sangiovese at its finest.
