Tasting notes
Poggio Antico's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a dark, sensual beauty. Black cherries, mocha, smoke, licorice, leather and cloves meld together in a racy, powerful Brunello built on pure texture. The style is rich, racy and super-intense, with silky tannins that support the structured finish. The 2010 spent three years in cask.

Concentrated ruby with orange tinges. Sweet fruit nose with hints of leather. Gripping tannins that are backed up by ripe fruit and with a good dose of acidity on the finish. Ends a little astringent, but should improve with a couple of years in the bottle. (WS)
A beautifully balanced, subtle Brunello with plum, berry, spice and fresh-mahogany character. Full to medium body, fine tannins and a long finish. Very intense and harmonious. This is always a beauty. Drink or hold. Jan 2015, www.jamessuckling.com
