Poggio di Sotto Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2012

A very droughty vintage until harvesting. Consequently lead to a minor production, but this version of Poggio di Sotto Riserva has been characterized by an intense, multiple refined aromas expressions. Powerful and, at the same time, elegant wine: ethereal, spicy but crispy, with a deep fruit fragrance and an austere character. 

Goes well with roast and braised red meats, game and aged cheese. Ethereal aromas of wild berry, rose petal, dark spice and a light balsamic note swirl around the glass. The juicy elegantly structured palate delivers black cherry, raspberry compote, licorice and a hint of cinnamon framed in bright acidity and tightly knit but refined tannins. It's already approachable but will be even better in 2019.
