Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Granchio 2018
Poggio al Granchio is a magical place for environmental and landscape value. It is a narrow valley on the southeast ridge of Montalcino that descends towards Sant'Antimo. The area reaches the highest altitudes for the Montalcino hill vineyards. It is a vineyard kissed by the morning sun and climatically strongly influenced by Mount Amiata, a former volcano and sacred mountain for the Etruscans that stands out right in front of it. This area of Montalcino is characterised by soils rich in marl, particularly precious for Brunello.

Colour

Ruby red with purple reflections.

Bouquet

It explodes on the nose with fresh fruit reminiscent of cherries in alcohol, redcurrants, blackberries and myrtle.

Flavour

In the mouth, it has this unmistakable subtle opening with silky, long tannins. It has a tasty, mineral finish that only this area can give to Sangiovese wine.
