Poggio Antico 2010 Riserva (Brunello di Montalcino)

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

Scents of ripe plum, espresso, cake spice, menthol and a whiff of toasted oak lead the nose. The rich, concentrated palate offers mature black cherry, blackberry compote, licorice, mocha and vanilla alongside ripe tannins. It’s already almost accessible but also shows modest staying power. Drink 2018–2025.
