The Brunello di Montalcino is intense and elegant. After a natural spontaneous fermentation of two weeks, the wine ferments in French oak barrels, where it matures for 38 months. This is followed by a minimum bottle aging of 6 months.

The grapes for this wine come from vineyards in the most prestigious wine regions of Montalcino. The vineyards are located at altitudes of 175 to 500 meters above sea level. The biodiversity found here results in a wine that is balanced, complex and versatile at the same time.

Aromas of ripe red fruit complemented by black pepper and licorice unfold on the nose. A wine with a good balance in the mouth. Strong tannins and aromas of red fruit with a hint of spices. Persistent finish.

Parker-Larner 93 points: Poggio Landi falls under the greater Dievole wine group that operates in some of the best appellations of Tuscany. Their 2015 Brunello di Montalcino leaves no doubt as to its warm-vintage origins. Compared to the estate's Rosso di Montalcino, fruit is harvested at slightly lower elevations (at 200 to 300 meters above sea level, compared to the Rosso that comes from a site that rises as high as 400 meters in altitude). That range of elevations will no doubt come in handy as Montalcino faces climate change. This wine maintains a tight, polished and traditional personality. It plays perfectly into the house style that favors an elegant and less extracted approach. Yet you also sense the extra sunshine and warmth of the vintage in those aromas of wild cherry, plum and crushed flowers.

Suckling 93 points: Fascinating pumice, dried red cherries and spices here. Fruity and succulent with a level of gravitas to the drying, structured tannins that keep the palate quite taut and firm. Medium long on the finish. Drink from 2023.

Galloni 90 points

WineSpectator 93 points: Bright, featuring black currant, black cherry, floral and wild herb flavors. Elegant yet firmly structured, with a lingering aftertaste that picks up a chalky mineral accent. Best from 2023 through 2040. 6,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.
