Blue-fruit with some slate and bark aromas follow through to a medium body with chewy tannins and a fresh finish. Drink or hold.

Description
Poggio Antico is a certified organic winery starting with the 2020 vintage. In the last year the winery has been adapted to include more cement and steel barrels in the fermentation area. The goal is to pursue smaller batch vinifications from specific vineyards. Poggio Antico has also planted two new hectares of vines in the prized I Poggi area and plans to add more new vines in 2021. There is also a replanting in the vineyard that makes the IGT Toscana Madre (a blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon) - the replanting will last until 2026.
The Poggio Antico Rosso di Montalcino is made with 100% home-grown Sangiovese and is produced in a traditional way to let the purity of the grape shine. It is the youngest and smoothest expression of (baby) Brunello. More accessible, fresher and less intense. In the nose beautiful dark red fruit such as cherry, blueberry, blackberry and leather. In the mouth elegant, fruity with fresh fruit again. A delicious glass!
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will also receive a nice discount. We are almost next to the national road with plenty of parking space. Click here for address

The Poggio Antico Brunello di Montalcino and the Riserva are distributed through the Place du Bordeaux - so always around September of the year, the negociances in Bordeaux distribute the always scarce wines worldwide among the only affiliated wine distributors, including Grandcru wines. Poggio Antico is one of the highest estates in Tuscany. In 1984 it was bought by Giancarlo and Nuccia Gloder and in 2017 by a Belgian company.
