Poggio alle Mura
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

A Brunello from the estate vineyards that the zonation studies, initiated in 1980, identified as the most suitable for Sangiovese. Complex and elegant Brunello, the perfect expression of this exceptional vintage. On the nose, hints of coffee and pipe tobacco accompany the fruity aromas of blackberry and plum jam together with a spicy note on the finish.
