Poggio Antico - 'Altero' Brunello Di Montalcino 2015
The 2015 Altero was made from a selection of the best wine in the cellar. Aged for 30 months in French oak tonneaux (500 l), followed by 18 months of bottle refinement, the 2015 vintage is definitely cellar worthy.
Grape: 100% Sangiovese
Region: Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy
Nose: Juicy red currants, cherries, and sprigs of fresh rosemary are robed in vanilla and baking spice with just a wisp of smoke.
Palate: Balanced and tightly framed on the medium-to full-bodied palate with mouthwatering fruit and crunchy acidity, coloring an ornately woven structure of silky tannins. Very long and velvety on the finish.
