Poggio Antico, high up in the hills of Montalcino Poggio Antico is one of Montalcino's most elevated estates, situated southwest of the fame medieval citadel. Its 35-hectare (86 acres) vineyard area is cultivated at an altitude of almost 500 meters (1 640 ft). The estate's unique location, high altitude, and perfect exposure all contribute to the ideal conditions which give the wines of Poggio Antico intense bouquets and incredible finesse. Founded in 1976, a new team arrived at the head of the estate in 2017. As soon as they arrived, they led a soil survey to identify the micro terroirs within the vineyard in order to implement a polt-by-plot approach. They have launched many new and exciting projects, including the organic conversion of the vineyards, cellar renovations and plans for a new hospitality center. Poggio Antico, Riserva Brunello di Montalcino D.O.C.G , is only made during exceptional vintages from a selection of the best Sangiovese in the vineyards. Released 6 years after harvest, the Riserva is aged in wooden barrels (both French and Slavonian). This is the fullest of Poggio Antico's 3 Brunellos. The 2017 vintage Despite the drought brought by one of the hottest summers of the last decades, the grapes have regularly matured thanks to the abundant water reserve (accumulated during the winter) and the high altitude of our vineyards. All of these elements have enhanced Poggio Antico’s terroir, endowing the wines with the right concentration and a pleasing fruity character. A vintage to discover.
