Brunello di Poggio Landi 2018 matures slowly for at least 38 months in large French oak barrels. It is an intense and elegant wine, extremely pleasant, characterized by a complex bouquet in which notes of plum, liquorice, and tobacco stand out. Warm taste and great persistence at the end of the palate.

Wine Advocate

A certified-organic wine, the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino shows a graceful and delicate side with wild cherries, blue flowers and warm earthiness. The wine is silky and smooth on the palate, with hints of crushed mineral or limestone. Fresh acidity fuels a long but lightweight finish. This accessible vintage (with 90,000 bottles made) is ready to enjoy in the near or medium term.

Wine Spectator

Framed by vanilla and toasty oak, the black cherry and plum flavors in this red are focused and backed by lively acidity. A matrix of dense tannins also lurks underneath, leaving a tactile impression on the finish. Best from 2025 through 2040.
