The Poggio Antico Brunello di Montalcino 2016, from an exceptional vintage, offers a complex aromatic profile of ripe red and black cherries, plum, dried violet, and savory notes of forest floor, leather, and tobacco. Subtle hints of vanilla bean, cedar, and baking spice emerge from oak aging. On the palate, it is full-bodied and powerful, with a vibrant acidity that provides freshness and balance to its firm yet refined tannins. Concentrated flavors of dark fruit, dried herbs, and an earthy minerality lead to a long, elegant, and persistent finish.
