Il Poggione Rosso di Montalcino 2008

Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalySpicy, peppery, tobacco, prune, black cherry, meaty, savoury, barnyard, leather, carrot top, and floral aromas. Dry, fresh slightly tight palate with light tannins and medium body. Classic cherry, tobacco, pepper and earth flavours with ash, carrot top, slightly herbal, olive flavours and a smoky, gamey finish. Lean but Tuscan and this will be fine with most grilled meats.Tasted: 29 April 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
