Rating: Robert Parker Wine Advocate 96+, Decanter 95, James Suckling 93, Wine Spectator 93, Wine Enthusiast 94, Vivino 4.5

Poggio di Sotto hits it out the ballpark once again with an extremely elegant interpretation that shows the incredible depth and nuance Sangiovese can achieve, even in an uneven vintage such as this. The certified organic 2018 Brunello di Montalcino reveals a dark ruby hue and mid-weight concentration. Indeed, the wine is lighter and brighter than most, despite Brunello's mandatory five years of aging before its commercial release. The tannins are silky and melt over the palate. Along the way, the wine offers high notes of red cherry, cassis and blue flower. This 38,000-bottle release carries a very high price tag, but your high expectations will be met. 96+

Description

Description

Fattoria Poggio di Sotto was founded in 1989 on the south-east side of Montalcino, considered one of the best areas for the growing of Sangiovese.

Poggio di Sotto is in the commune of Castelnuovo dell’Abate, to the south of the appellation. It is one of the warmest of Montalcino’s subregions, but this is moderated by the north and southwest expositions of Poggio di Sotto’s vineyards and its high altitude on a steep outcrop rising up to 1,400ft (440m) above sea level.

The altitude, along with the protection of the ancient volcano Monte Amiata on one side and the Orcia river combined with sea breezes from the other, result in a unique microclimate allowing beneficial thermal excursions between day and night time even in very hot summers.
