The Brunello di Montalcino Altero is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, sourced from Poggio Antico estate`s vineyards. The wine undergoes a longer maceration period and aging in French oak barrels, which adds a distinctive character to the final product. The 2010 vintage in Montalcino was considered exceptional, with ideal growing conditions leading to perfectly ripe and balanced grapes. The 2010 Altero showcases the best of this vintage, offering a wine with excellent structure, depth, and complexity.

Super-ripe black cherries, espresso, mocha, cloves, lavender, licorice and French oak are some of the notes that inform the estate's Brunello di Montalcino Altero. In this vintage, the French oak overpowers the fruit and marks the wine to a significant degree. Here, the house style has clearly been forced upon the vintage. Today, the Altero remains compact through the mid-palate and finish. I am not sure the fruit will ever emerge. The 2010 spent two years in 500L French oak barrels.Antonio Galloni1st February 2015
