Layered red and black cherry, wild herbs and rose flow from the 2019 Poggio di Sotto Brunello di Montalcino, carried by vivid acidity and a refined, tensile frame. The palate is pure and focused yet quietly powerful, with sleek, finely etched tannins and a long, stony finish that reveals its more muscular side while remaining exquisitely poised. This is a graceful but structured Brunello built for long evolution in bottle.

Brunello di Montalcino from Poggio di Sotto is a benchmark, traditionally crafted 100% Sangiovese from old, biodiverse vineyards on poor clay-and-limestone soils in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, at 200–450 meters above sea level. Fermented with long macerations and aged well beyond DOCG requirements in large Slavonian oak casks, it yields a pale yet intensely perfumed, supremely elegant style of Brunello, with bright cherry fruit, floral and citrus nuances, and refined tannins built for long aging.
