One of three single-vineyard expressions from Val di Suga, the 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Granchio opens to a nicely saturated color and beautifully intense aromas. Fruit is sourced from a site located in the southeast quadrant of Montalcino where steep diurnal shifts help to sharpen and maximize those pretty fruit aromas. Wild cherry and blackberry are followed by aniseed, camphor ash and balsam herb. This elegant wine delivers an impressive load of Sangiovese typicity... Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Wow black fruit tight and big. Wild bright cherries nice acidity and mouthfeel. Rolling gripping tannins. Can benefit from a few more years in the bottle.

This one is a bit more generous with fruit and shows a slightly broader mid palate than the more northern cru. Still very nervy and tight with screeching acidity. Love the intensity, but wouldn’t dare open this for another 5 years.

Beautiful Brunello. All the classic notes. A little more fruit forward than our favourite Ugolforte but excellent structure and refined palate. Not much can compare with any Brunello at its finest!
