Il Poggione Description

Winemaker Notes

Intense ruby red colour. Fruity bouquet with red berry notes. Very well structured, yet soft, long-lasting flavor with smooth, velvety tannins.

Pair with pasta with meat sauce, roasted, grilled meats and medium strength cheeses.

Critical Acclaim

Wine & Spirits
This is a robust and structured Rosso, its dark cherry flavors riding on firm, new-leather tannins as the wine gains notes of warm spice and graphite. Decant it to coax out the juicy red fruit tones.
JS 92
James Suckling
A nicely spicy Rosso di Montalcino with cloves, dried flowers, sour cherries and orange peel on the nose. Creamy and medium- to full-bodied, with chalky tannin's and a ripe, chocolaty finish. Drink or hold.

Jeb Dunnuck
Dark fruited and flush with sweet floral perfume, the 2021 Rosso Di Montalcino is ripe with boysenberry, black raspberry, pine sap, and balsamic. A bit of varnish on the opening may need some time to settle down. It has a silky and satin-like texture, with black cherry cola, mocha, and purple flowers, and the wine is medium to full-bodied, open, and inviting. Drink 2023-2038.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Il Poggione 2021 Rosso di Montalcino (with 200,000 bottles made) offers medium fruit weight with dark cherry, wild plum and savory spice. This is a terrific vintage with moderate summer temperatures and a long growing season that agrees very much with Sangiovese, a grape that takes its time to ripen and develop complexity. This Rosso also reveals an especially spicy character with nutmeg and cinnamon that seems to come from the skins of the grape as much as it may come from 12 months in oak.

Wine Spectator
A juicy red, with leather and underbrush accents framing smoky cherry, plum and mineral flavors. Well-structured and long, with a solid grip of tannins on the lingering aftertaste. Offers fine intensity.
