Poggio Antico Riserva - Brunello Di Montalcino 2016

VINTAGE NOTES

An outstanding vintage characterized by a classic Mediterranean climate trend. The season began as a cold one, with little rainfall and temperatures that are slightly below average, which led to regular fruit set. The fairly hot summer presented significant diurnal temperature variation between day and night. These characteristics, combined with the lower temperatures and the light rain in early September, allowed for perfect ripening, as well as the development of pleasant freshness and exceptional phenolic maturity.

Boisé élégant et complexe, fruits noirs pour une bouche légèrement sucrée et élégante. Fraicheur aérienne et longue. Un vin de caractère mais qui reste dans un registre d'élégance pour notre plus grand plaisir. 100 % sangiovese. 3,5 hectares.

Wine Spectator

This stunning red leads off with a beam of cherry, kirsch and violet flavors, while mineral, tobacco and ash lend accents. Fresh and juicy, with fine harmony and an exceptional aftertaste that echoes the fruit and mineral elements. Its solid structure gives this fine aging potential. Best from 2025 through 2043. 750 cases made, 200 cases imported.

The Poggio Antico 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva absolutely delivers the goods, especially if you are in the market for a rich and robust expression of Sangiovese with dark fruit, cherry, leather, spice and tar. The finish is smooth and velvety, and although you recognize the structure of the wine, you by no means feel the tannins in any obvious way. However, the alcohol is strong at 15% in this 9,000-bottle release.

This was an exceptional year in Brunello and straight away you are struck by the depth of expression, and the tannic heft and width. Plenty of raspberry, rose petal and red cherry puree along with blackberry, campfire and brioche notes. A classic, signature Brunello with all that you expect from a 2016 in the region. Absolutely one to look out for, moreish, saline-streaked, mouthwatering and walks the line of power and finesse. This is just approaching the sweet spot for drinking but will hold. 30 months in bottle after 30 months in barrel. Slavonian oak casks for ageing.

There’s a real purity of sangiovese fruit here with cherries, orange peel and sandalwood. It’s full-bodied yet so tight and refined as well as structured. Fine tannins lead you down deep into the palate which opens up at the end. Fascinating. Drink in 2024 and onwards.
