Poggio Antico Brunello di Montalcino 2013

Diep robijnrode kleur met een bruine rand. Complexe aroma's met eiken-invloed (vanille, kruidnagel, toast) en zwoele aroma's (caramel, koffie). Mooie zuren en rijpe tannines vormen de bouwstenen die deze wijn een lange toekomst garanderen.

Resultaat van hoge maat oenologische expertise en geduld. Poggio Antico maakt uitzonderlijke wijnen met een groot respect voor de natuur en passie .

Fermentation Notes: The fermentation period was quite short (8 days) with relatively low temperatures (maximum 26°C) and lasted 20 days.

Aging: Just over 3 years in large, traditional Slavonian oak barrels, followed by 8 months of bottle refinement.

Harvest Date: September 26th – October 21st

Harvest Notes: Below average temperatures and heavy precipitation during spring and early June. Summer instead was marked by normal season temperatures with some rainfalls resulting in a gradual ripening of the grapes. In August and September the weather was ideal, with pleasant temperatures during the day combined with cool nights, which enabled phenolic development and proper ripening of the grapes.
