Tasting Notes

This 2019 Poggiarellino Brunello di Montalcino is traditional and aromatic, showing red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, barely ripe berries, rose water, cherry blossom, plum, leather, savory herbs, potpourri, bitter roots, tree bark, and earthy undertones. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, firm, and lively, with bright acidity, chewy refined tannins, red berry purity, subtle toast, bitter chocolate, spice, and a long balanced finish.

Food Paring

Pair this classic Brunello with Florentine steak, wild boar ragù, winter risotto, roasted lamb, or hearty game to complement its firm Sangiovese structure and savory Tuscan depth. It also works beautifully with mushroom dishes, aged pecorino, and slow-cooked tomato sauces when you want a food-friendly red with elegance and cellar-worthy grip.

Professional Reviews

94 Orazio Campoli

"The 2019 Poggiarellino Brunello di Montalcino is a classic, handcrafted version of Tuscany's signature Sangiovese Grosso grape. Poggiarellino is a small winery run by a small family. They are located in the north of Montalcino, emphasizing the tradition, this Brunello offers a blend of elegance, depth and authenticity."

91 James Suckling

"Aromas of black cherries, potpourri and bitter roots, as well as a hint of tree bark. Medium body with chewy tannins. Subtly toasty aftertaste. A little austere. Compact and tight. Better after 2024."

91 Wine Enthusiast

"The nose blooms with sweet springtime aromas of rose water, vanilla bean, cherry blossom and wild strawberry, before snappier fruit notes of barely ripe cherries and berries take over on the palate. Clay-like tannins reinforce a bitter chocolate backbone."
