Description
This is one of the absolute top wines from Montalcino, produced by the Tenuta Il Poggione estate. The grapes for this Brunello come from Tenuta Il Poggione's very best vineyards, with vines that are 25 to 40 years old. Il Poggione produces its Brunello only in the best vintages.
The Sangiovese Grosso grapes come from the oldest vineyards, situated at an altitude of between 150 and 450 meters. The grapes are harvested by hand. After harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in large steel vats at a controlled temperature of 25/28°C. Il Poggione's Brunello is aged in 30 and 50 hectoliter French oak barrels for 36 months. The wine then matures in the bottle for at least 12 months. The Brunello di Montalcino is a remarkable wine that showcases the purity of Sangiovese. None of these elements overpowers the other. A highlight you can enjoy for another 20 years.
In the glass, Il Poggione has a ruby red color and intense aromas on the nose, with a strong emphasis on ripe red fruit—cherries, herbs, licorice, smoked meat, roses, and grilled meat. On the palate, Brunello has a taut and clean mouthfeel with full, powerful, complex, velvety-smooth fruit intensity, and a long, lingering finish.
This is a 1.5-liter magnum in its original wooden box (OWC/1). Even more delicious and with a longer drinking window.

Showing very nice results, with greater accessibility in this vintage, the Il Poggione 2020 Brunello di Montalcino has dark fruit aromas with blackcurrant followed by something spicy or herbal. I am reminded of licorice root, exotic spice, pressed rose and fragrant tea leaf. It finishes smoothly with silky tannins and an open-knit approach. This vintage is almost ready to drink, and you get elegant complexity at the same time. It sees three years in oak botti. Fruit is sourced across vineyards with 25-year-old-plus vines. This is an ample production of 200,000 bottles.

From: Buckle Your Seatbelts: 2019 Brunello and 2021 Rosso di Montalcino (Dec 2023)
A classic from the first tilt of the glass, the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino wows the senses with a pleasantly old-school bouquet of leather, earth tones, dried flowers, crushed cherries, sage and clove. This mixes radiant dark red fruits with sweet spices and salty mineral tones to create a display of contrasts, all over a silky textural wave that’s guided by vibrant acidity. Youthfully tense yet spicy with an orange flourish and amazingly fresh, the 2016 finishes with a tart tinge of youthful tension and fine-grained tannins that will require patience to resolve. This is, without a doubt, one of the vintage's top wines. The 2016 is total class.
- By Eric Guido on November 2023
Alessandro Bindocci of Il Poggione compares the weather conditions of 2019 to 2016. However, when tasting the two vintages, I found them markedly different. While both come across as quite classic, there is more energy and fruit to be found in the 2019 versus the 2016 at the same stage. As for the 2016 Brunello, it’s coming along beautifully. I had the opportunity to revisit it on this last trip in the company of some pretty heavy hitters, where it reigned supreme. Except for 2016 and 2019, the previous eight years were characterized by warm and dry conditions. As a result, Il Poggione has begun to prioritize irrigation for emergency uses (which is becoming a necessity in the southwest of Montalcino) and is looking to their higher-elevation vineyards to find more balance. It bears mentioning that despite its location in one of the warmest and driest parts of the region, Il Poggione remains one of the absolute top producers of Brunello from year to year at a remarkably fair price point.

From: 2016 Brunello di Montalcino: Radiance Personified (Nov 2020)
I’m not sure how Il Poggione manages to remain one of the largest producers of Brunello, maintaining such a high level of quality and turning out some of the best wines of the vintage year after year - but they do. The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino is yet another stunning example. Depths of mineral-encased black cherries, sage, allspice, licorice, tobacco and crushed violets lift up from the glass. It’s seamlessly silky, even as the palate is peppered with tart red and black berries, nervous acids and savory exotic spices. This shows the density and weight of the vintage in a youthfully monolithic stance, yet with all the necessary components to maintain perfect balance. The 2016 Il Poggione seems to fold in upon itself through the finish, which is dark, mysterious and structured, with only hints of black tea and licorice to tempt the imagination. It’s a classic in the making.
- By Eric Guido on November 2020
Il Poggione continues to set the benchmark for uncompromising quality, which is all the more remarkable considering it is one of the largest wineries in Montalcio and makes some 200,000 bottles of Brunello a year. The estate is located on the southern slopes of Montalcino, in the warm, yet well-ventilated micro-climate of Sant’Angelo in Colle, where we find varied exposures, soils and elevations of behind these impeccably balanced Brunellos. Fabrizio Bindocci explains that Il Poggione has no interest in making any big changes in the near future, and eschews the trend of cru classifications in Montalcino, preferring to stick to traditions has served this estate well for decades now. That said, the winery technically already has a cru Brunello in the form of their Riserva, which emerges from fifty-five-year-old vines in the Paganelli vineyard. Simply stated, you’d be hard pressed to find more dependable bottles of Brunello or Riserva with this combination of quality and price point.

Tenuta Il Poggione is the grande dame of the brunello. Its origins go back to the year 1630. An important milestone in recent history is the year 1890, when the Florentine family Franceschi took over the winery in S. Angelo in Colle in the south of Montalcino.
Today, the Italian winery is owned by Leopoldo and Livia Franceschi, who own a 125-hectare vineyard. The large surface area allows the family to produce wines at a consistently high level every year. Due to its location, the winery benefits from the climate around the Amiata mountain and the Tyrrhenian sea and are located at an altitude of 150 to 450 meters above sea level. Because of the variation in the height of the vineyards, it is easier to harvest the grapes at the right time and to produce wines that can stay for a long time. Showpieces are the 'Vigna Paganelli' Brunello di Montalcino Riserva of a separate plot built in 1964, bottled only in the best years, and of course the 'normal' brunello. In 2004 a very modern wine cellar became operational. The wine can mature here in oak barrels at an optimum temperature of five meters. Fabrizio Bindocci, who is known as a specialist far beyond the borders of Montalcino, heads the winery. He keeps a close eye on the quality and ensures that Il Poggione remains part of the best brunello wines. The excellent reviews do not lie.
