Note di degustazione
The 1998 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio al Vento comes across as a bit earlier-maturing in style, which isn't such a bad thing for readers who may also be holding some of the sturdier vintages. At the same time, the tannins are a little less polished than they are in the great years, and that is just part of the wine's DNA. Wild cherries, rosemary, herbs, licorice and leather are some of the notes that flow through to the finish. As good as the 1998 is, the finesse of the very best years isn't quite there.

The 1998 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio al Vento is bigger and fatter than the 1999. It presents a more masculine array of earthiness, tobacco, tar and dark cherry nuances on an ampler, if less refined, frame of notable length, with broad, building tannins. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2016. Importer: Palm Bay Imports, Boca Raton, FL; tel. (561) 362-9642
