Brunello di Montalcino Poggio all’Oro 1990

A real thoroughbred. The color is an intense ruby-garnet with few concessions. The aroma is outstanding with orange peel, spice, prunes, an intense floral component of violets, bergamot, tamarind, tobacco and a light, refreshing, balsamic greenish nuance. The attack is wonderful, dense and elegant, with excellent tannins that are elegant and settled. The acidity is discreet yet present, while the finish its perfect thanks to its persistence and intensity. The retro-nasal return is also excellent, impeccably defined between its floral and dark spice components.
