Description

Located at an average altitude of approximately 450 metres above sea level, Poggio Antico is one of the highest altitude producers of Brunello. The Riserva is aged over 5 years in total, 1 of which is in 500-litre French oak tonneaux, followed by 2.5 years in large oval Slavonian oak barrels, and a further minimum 18 months of bottle aging before its release.


Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate June 2009
90 (90 - 95 Outstanding. A wine of exceptional complexity and character)
The 2003 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva spent one year in French oak followed by two years in larger Slavonian oak barrels. It is a full-bodied, soft Brunello with impressive concentration in its dark fruit, new leather, spices and tobacco. The wine possesses outstanding length on the palate and lovely overall balance.


Wine Spectator June 2009
91 (90 - 93 Excellent Highly Recommended)
Shows blackberry and raspberry aromas, with hints of fresh flowers, such as roses. Full and silky, with a firm tannin structure and a lot of wood, but there’s ripe, classy fruit holding this together. One of the better riservas from this vintage. Best from 2010 through 2015.

Blackberry and dark cherry, light tones of leather and tobacco. The tannins provide a firm backbone but not unyielding, a serious wine meant to be enjoyed over a long evening.

91 (Outstanding)
Preserved red and some black berries on the nose, hint of plums, cedary traces and light spicy notes, touch of licorice, floral and vegetal notes, nutty notes and spicy oak. Ripe, juicy fruit on the palate, well integrated oak, touch of chocolate and nougat, very creamy, predominantly mature tannins, only slightly astringent, becomes more juicy with aeration, very good persistence and depth, full body, hint of licorice in the background, light spicy oak on a long, juicy finish.


Kevin Lynch, International Wine Examiner May 2010
Vintners in the Brunello di Montalcino region only bottle riserva wines in exceptional years and 2003 was one such year at Poggio Antico. The 2003 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG is made from the oldest vines at the lowest elevation where there can be 4 to 5 degree variance between the highest part of the corner of the valley where Poggio Antico is situated. Sour cherry flavors, long tangy finish.
