Note di degustazione
Single vineyard. Tasted blind. Deep ruby with bright orange tinges. Leafy, herbal cherry nose with a touch of gingerbread. Soft, ripe fruit with surprisingly low acidity and supple tannins. Good length but there is already more than a touch of oxidation on the finish. Not a long life span. (WS)

I had tasted this as an unfinished product last year at the conclusion of a fascinating explorative tasting of wine from each of Banfi's single-vineyard parcels. With that background in mind, my impression of the Castello Banfi 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio all'Oro remains absolutely optimistic. This wine rocks clarity and intensity of aromas. Forest fruit and dried cherry mingle with powdered licorice and camphor ash. The mouthfeel is polished and glossy. The Riserva Poggio all'Oro is fermented in a combination of stainless steel and wood. Some 70% of the total ages in botte, and 30% goes into new French oak. This wine hit the market in October 2019. Some 15,200 bottles were produced.
Extremely complex aromas of cedar, mushroom and walnut highlighting the cherry and flowers. The palate is full and complete with ultra-fine and caressing tannins that are truly silky. Itâs still very young, but shows beauty and seduction. Try after 2020.
