Brunello is the prince of Montalcino wines. It is produced exclusively with hand-picked Sangiovese grapes from the company's oldest vineyards.
Intense purple red color. On the nose the varietal aromas of red fruit are evident, where cherry prevails. There are also evident spicy notes of pepper and chocolate. On the palate it is balanced, with a good persistence and a soft and elegant tannin. It goes well with first courses, grilled...
A classic Bordeaux blend, Terre follows in the footsteps of its big brother the San Leonardo, originating from the same terroir, imitating its intensity and refined elegance.
Younger and easier to approach version of Brunello, but already with an excellent structure and a great personality, Rosso di Montalcino is a very important wine for Tenuta Il Poggione.
The grapes are harvested manually only when they have reached full sugar and polyphenolic ripeness. Some of the bunches are not de-stemmed. The duration of maceration depends on the years and the characteristics of the grapes, and can vary from 10 to 20 days, at a controlled temperature.
San Leonardo is the magical result of a tradition that is called the "Bordeaux blend" all over the world. It is a symbiosis of dream and tradition, to taste a wine capable of transmitting the character and charm of the territory's identity.
