Tenuta Il Poggione is a Montalcino estate with a long history and is a benchmark for traditionally made Brunello. The 2012 Riserva Poggio Alle Mura is a juicy, fruit-driven release saturated with black fruit intensity, leather, spice and earth. This will certainly improve with time.

The Banfi winemaking team has done a terrific job with the 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio alle Mura. This is a thickly extracted and saturated wine with a dark personality that oozes forth with black fruit intensity, spice, leather and tar. There is volume and weight here, and both are delivered with an effortless sense of precision and power. This wine is built to last, and I would recommend more years of cellar aging before popping the cork.Monica Larner28th February 2018
93 Vinous
Deep red-ruby. Blackberry, strawberry and nutty oak on the nose, complicated by smoky minerality and a whiff of mocha. Fresh but smooth, with a distinctly savory quality to the ripe red berry and herbal flavors. The finish is broad and suave, displaying a saline element and substantial ripe tannins. Not unexpectedly, this Riserva is richer and denser than the 2013 Brunello Poggio alle Mura.Ian d'Agata1st April 2018
