Poggio Antico
Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy
2015: 9.3-9.4. Outstanding Brunello, still drinking young (was stored properly in cooled room in wine store), with loads of concentrated cherry fruit and complementary but still-firm tannins. Starting to develop more complex flavors of leather and iron. A mouthful of high-quality Sangiovese; will be a knockout with more age. $60 at WL.

Absolutely fantastic. Rounded tannins superbly integrated with dark cherry, plum extracts. Nice earthy edge. All the elements I love in a wine.

Nothing pairs with Italian food like a nice Brunello
