Poggio Antico 1997 Brunello di Montalcino

Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: Poggio Antico / Brunello di Montalcino

Paola Gloder’s estate can do better than this, especially in a vintage like 1997. The wine is already showing signs of aging and it has a lightweight character. The fruit is pleasant enough, with soft tannins and ripeness, but it should be more exciting. Tasted twice.
