Jeb Dunnuck (93)Coming from Verduno, the 2020 Barolo Monvigliero is a bright red/ruby color and offers an expressive, rosy perfume of cranberries, dusty earth, and delicate spices. Medium-bodied, it’s very elegant and graceful on the palate’ with fine tannins, clean, evenly balanced acidity, and a nicely tapered finish. It’s quite appealing now but should have a solid 6-8 years ahead of it. |

Cultivated in the esteemed Costa Toscana appellation, this elegant bianco is meticulously crafted from a selection of premium white varietals, harmoniously blended to achieve exceptional balance and complexity. The vineyards benefit from the region's unique microclimate and well-drained soils, imparting distinctive minerality and vibrant acidity to the wine. Harvested at optimal ripeness, the grapes undergo careful fermentation in stainless steel vats to preserve their fresh and aromatic character. Poggio al Tesoro's commitment to sustainable viticulture and traditional winemaking techniques is evident in every sip, showcasing notes of citrus, white blossoms, and subtle minerality, culminating in a refined and lingering finish.

Wine Advocate (95+)The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino offers a pure and classic expression of the vintage with bright fruit tones, wild cherry, toasted nut, blue flower and forest floor. Whereas the other wines in the Poggio Antico portfolio undergo aging in smaller tonneaux, this wine is aged in large Slavonian casks instead. You taste the lift and brightness of the fruit, and it's all quite lovely. Grapes are sourced across a 13-hectare site at a very high 500 meters in elevation. The name of this area is I Poggi, and the soils here are a bit lighter and rockier with both schistous galestro and limestone alberese. I love the delicate approach here, the intensity of those floral aromas, and the silky nature of the mouthfeel. Some 34,000 bottles will be released in January 2021. This classic Brunello really stands out. |

James Suckling (94)Lovely purity of fruit with aromas of peaches, plums, ripe cherries and lemons, alongside some spice box and moss. Medium to full body with fine, creamy tannins. Wonderfully juicy and approachable with a supple and seamless finish. Drink now or hold. |

Vinous (91.5)Dark red with a large pale rim. Big, brooding wine that offers much darker color, aromas and flavors than Poggio Antico’s 2015 Brunello classico. But bigger is not necessarily better, and I find that the cedary, flinty, herbal nuances to the red and blue fruits neither have much verve nor they represent my ideal Sangiovese wine. Will likely improve with cellaring, but for the money, I’d rather buy Poggio Antico’s regular 2015 Brunello. |

Wine Advocate (97)The Poggio Antico 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva (with 9,000 bottles going to market in January 2021) is a thickly textured and rich wine with fruit-driven flavors and extra fiber. The wine sings with the characteristics of this vintage that will be remembered for the sunshine, the warmth and the picture-perfect fruit. Each cluster hung from the vine with glorious perfection. There is more warmth and dark plum intensity here for sure, and you also get greater latitude in terms of those savory tones of leather, tobacco and tilled earth. The Riserva is sourced from the Il Vignone site at a high 500 meters above sea level where summer breezes keep the grapes healthy and ripe. |

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (97)This was an exceptional year in Brunello and straight away you are struck by the depth of expression, and the tannic heft and width. Plenty of raspberry, rose petal and red cherry puree along with blackberry, campfire and brioche notes. A classic, signature Brunello with all that you expect from a 2016 in the region. Absolutely one to look out for, moreish, saline-streaked, mouthwatering and walks the line of power and finesse. This is just approaching the sweet spot for drinking but will hold. 30 months in bottle after 30 months in barrel. Slavonian oak casks for ageing. |

The Poggio Argentiera Morellino Di Scansano Capatosta 2016 represents the pinnacle of Tuscan artistry. Sourced from Maremma, the winery fondly nicknamed 'the little Bordeaux of Italy', this distinguished wine reveals a complex ensemble of Morello cherry and wild berry hints, underpinned by subtleties of eucalyptus and Mediterranean scrub. Intriguingly, it's crafted from Sangiovese, Merlot, and Syrah only from old vines, fostering superior concentration and depth. Poggio Argentiera, a cherished estate established in 1997, meticulously devotes attention to every stage of the winemaking journey. The unique 2016 Capatosta sits for 12 months in French oak barrels and rests for 6 months in the bottle, seamlessly integrating its fresh aromas and rounded, silky tannins. A climactic year marked by moderate rainfall and sun-soaked summers, 2016 elevated the wine's harmony and longevity. Honour Poggio Argentiera Morellino Di Scansano Capatosta 2016's distinct Italian elegance, enjoyed now or matured further for a decade. |

Vinous (93)Good bright medium red. Rich aromas of raspberry, red cherry, licorice, sweet pipe tobacco and violet. Rich, layered and sweet, boasting superb definition and depth to its fleshy but vibrant red berry, sweet spice and licorice flavors. This big, broad, perfumed wine finishes with excellent clarity and floral lift. Another standout Brunello from this producer and easily one of the year's best. I'd enjoy it within the next ten years, but I suspect it has the structure to age for longer than that. |

Wine Advocate (97)The Poggio di Sotto 2010 Brunello di Montalcino shows beautiful freshness, power and silky tannins. That brightness is the defining characteristic of this vintage. You feel it with vivid electrical force. This is remembered as a warm vintage, but considering today's climate change challenges, it might be classified as a cooler year according to today's standards. The intensity of the wine builds in thick layers, and it shows balanced fruit, chalky mineral and lasting herbal sensations. The 2019 vintage could age with similar success as this 2010. |

Wine Advocate (94)The 2011 vintage represents the first growing season farmed by its current owner, Claudio Tipa, and the ColleMassari team. The previous owner, Piero Palmucci, started the season by dropping fruit, and this helped push ripening forward. However, this vintage is remember for the hard work required to bring clean fruit into the winery. "Each cluster took about five minutes to trim and clean," says winemaker Luca Marrone: "This was one of the most expensive vintages ever because of all the cutting required." The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino has a sweet theme that comes from hot weather and sirocco winds that blew hot like a hair dryer throughout the summer. The vines were left with ripening fruit and no leaves, and some of the berries dried on the vine. The grapes were completely destemmed to avoid bitterness. (Since 2014, the winery has been working with whole berries.) This wine shows surprising freshness, nonetheless, and it is in terrific form today. There is a tannic pinch at the end, but the wine remains ample and generous in terms of mouthfeel. It's not overripe per se, but it is quite broad. |
