 DESCRIPTION
 A Banfi family jewel, Brunello Poggio all'Oro is produced exclusively in
 the great vintages.
 The mild winter, with regular rainfall, encouraged an early bud break. The
 spring was rather wet with a drop in temperatures at the end of April,
 which slowed down the growth cycle, bringing it back to normal. From
 mid-June, and throughout the month of July, there was a gradual rise in
 temperatures. In August, the excellent temperature range and sporadic
 rain allowed for the perfect ripening of the grapes. In September, the
 temperatures were quite high with an excellent temperature range. Mid
month, a few days of abundant rain risked compromising the harvest, but
 the sudden weather improvement of the following days, the technical
 and cultivation interventions carried out in the vineyards and the careful
 selection of the grapes, both in the vineyard and in the winery, enabled to
 harvest the Sangiovese at its best expression.
 A rich and elegant Riserva with a unique balance. Intense ruby red color, 
the aromatic profile is sweet and complex with notes of blackberry jam, 
tobacco, cocoa and balsamic hints on the finish. The structure is 
important and well-balanced by a decisive acidity and well-integrated 
tannins. Absolute pleasantness in the finish.
 It is perfectly suited to long ageing. It perfectly pairs with rich and
 complex dishes. Also excellent as a meditation wine.
