Poggio Antico Brunello di Montalcino is praised for its rich, full-bodied character, with notes of cherry, plum, and leather. While some appreciate its smooth texture and balanced tannins, others note a need for decanting to fully develop its flavors. The wine's earthy and spicy undertones are consistently highlighted, making it a favorite for pairing with meats. Its aging potential is often noted, enhancing its complexity over time.
