Cortonesi I Poggiarelli Brunello di Montalcino 2019
Cortonesi I Poggiarelli Brunello di Montalcino 2019
Vibrant and well-built, this wine has power to match the cherry, leather, and earth aromas and flavors. It shows a beautiful mineral character that lifts above the bright red fruit. That special aromatic signature is followed by dark fruit and balsam herb, firm tannins and bright acidity. Blend with 100% Sangiovese
Critical Acclaim
95 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
From a vineyard with old vines and schistic galestro soils, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Poggiarelli opens to a deep and unique sense of aromatic layering, starting with dark fruit, sweet tobacco leaf, flavored cigarette and spice. The wine is rich with dense fruit flavors and ripe tannins. You taste Sangiovese's skins with a hint of bitterness. However, the truly distinguishing factor of Poggiarelli is the etched mineral notes.
94 Jeb Dunnuck
The medium red 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino Poggiarelli is savory with smoky incense as well as notes of preserved cranberries, dried orange peel, tomato leaf, and leather. Medium to full-bodied, it offers a good deal of structure while remaining refined and balanced, with ripe tannins and even acidity. It has a long, lovely finish and offers a lot to look forward to as it matures. Drink 2026-2040.
94 James Suckling
Plenty of plum and cherry character here with aromas of flowers and cherry blossom that follow through to a medium body, very fine tannins and a flavorful finish. Plenty of clean fruit at the end. Give it time to develop in the bottle. Better after 2025.
93 Wine Enthusiast
An extremely fresh, juicy nose has wild strawberries and raspberries, then guava paste and blood orange jam. The palate is equally fruit-forward, but undertones of spices and soil bring welcome balance, before a current of tannins and acid flows into a finish of tart citrus and sweet chocolate.
92 Wine Spectator
Raspberry, black currant and floral aromas burst from the glass in this fresh and distinctive red, while the fruit flavors mingle with iron, tobacco, sanguine and wild herb accents. Burly tannins emerge on the long, palate-staining finish. Best from 2026 through 2040.
