3 bottles each of the 5-Star Rated Vintages of 2006 Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino and 2004 Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino Riserva "Vigna Paganelli".

2006 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

Winemaker's Notes: Elegant, calibrated and complex with aromas of cherry, raspberry, burnt wood, and liquorice.  It impetuously invades the mouth with full body and seamless tannins and acidity. It shows an excellent freshness that balances the alcohol that is naturally present and connected to the southern exposure of our vineyards. A very long finish with great potential that will allow us to appreciate it now and in 10-15 years at least.

2004 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Paganelli

Winemaker's Notes: Well structured and full-bodied, the Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2004 Vigna Paganellli is named after the estate's single vineyard from which the grapes are sourced.  It shows an intense ruby red color. On the nose, it shows flavors of red fruit, spices, leather and tobacco. On the mouth, the acidity is very well balanced, considering the vintage, and pleasant tannins caress the palate. This wine’s great potential will allow the tasters to enjoy it for the next 15-20 years.
