NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Poggio San Polo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva radiates a deep, intense ruby red hue.As it meets the nose, there's a captivating bouquet of ripe red cherries, blackberries, leather, and hints of truffle, with underlying whispers of violets and earthy minerals. On the palate, the wine is powerful yet refined, presenting a harmonious balance between its rich fruit core and firm, integrated tannins. Layers of dark fruits are interwoven with notes of tobacco, spices, and a touch of mocha, all underlined by its vibrant acidity. The finish is long and resonant, revealing the wine's potential for aging. An excellent accompaniment to hearty meat dishes or aged cheeses, this Brunello Riserva is a testimony to the artistry and dedication of the Poggio San Polo estate.
