Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino 2021 75cl

From Il Poggione, this 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is a distinguished Italian red with depth, structure and immediate appeal. The nose opens with black cherry, then develops notes of hay, dried cranberry, dried cherry and kirsch, followed by milk chocolate, truffle, violet, cracked pepper and seared steak.

On the palate, it shows a velvety texture, ripe tannins and generous flavour, balanced by crisp acidity for freshness. Already drinking well, it also has the concentration, tannin structure and balance to reward cellaring. Decanting for 15 minutes before serving helps bring out its character.
