Poggio il Castellare 2008 Brunello di Montalcino

Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Poggio il Castellare / Brunello di Montalcino

This young Brunello opens with a dark, penetrating color and thick aromas of exotic spice, chocolate, toasted espresso bean, nutmeg and peppercorn. There’s a raw, chewy feel to the wine that gives it heft and power, followed by sweet tannins and a rich, chocolaty consistency.
