Description and technical sheet
The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG Poggio al Vento by Col d'Orcia is one of the highest expressions of Sangiovese Grosso in Tuscany and one of the most iconic wines of the entire denomination. Produced only in exceptional vintages, this wine comes from the eponymous “Poggio al Vento” vineyard, located at about 350 meters above sea level on calcareous and galestro-rich soils, with a southwest exposure. The Riserva is the result of a meticulous grape selection and traditional winemaking, including long maceration and aging in large oak barrels for at least 36 months, followed by an extended period of bottle aging. The box containing the 2001, 2012, and 2015 vintages offers a sensory journey through three outstanding harvests, showcasing the wine's aging potential and extraordinary complexity.
Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG Poggio al Vento – Col d'Orcia: Tasting Notes
2001 vintage: tertiary aromas of leather, tobacco, and forest floor dominate, with an elegant structure and polished tannins. Long, savory finish.
2012 vintage: intense bouquet of ripe cherry, sweet spices, and licorice. On the palate, it is enveloping, with perfect balance between freshness and warmth.
2015 vintage: still young but expressive, with notes of black cherry, aromatic herbs, and graphite. The palate is rich, powerful yet refined, with a persistent balsamic finish. A vertical tasting set for true connoisseurs.
