Il Poggione Rosso di Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy 2023

Description

James Suckling 92

Tightly knit and focused, featuring dark cherries, fresh herbs and subtle oak spice. Medium-bodied with a linear profile and firm, yet finely integrated tannins. Long and slightly chewy finish. Drink or hold.

Wine Enthusiast 91

The nose is primarily savory and sanguine, with aromas of top soil and cracked black pepper, while overtones of raspberries and blackberries provide balance. The palate is cohesive, as more dark berries and fruit dance above an enduring foundation of metallic, peppery earth. Chalky tannins keep vigorous acid in check.
