Only made in what are deemed 'exceptional vintages', Ill Poggione's 'Vigna Paganelli' is on of Brunello's top wines. Intense and brooding, the 2010 vintage is marked by large tannins, dark fruits, tobacco, liquorice, lingering spices, and a finish both long and loud. Having resided for over 15 years in the bottle, this exceptional wine is perfectly seated in its drinking window, gathering greater complexity.

What a treat! The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Paganelli stands out for the extreme purity of its fruit and the profound depth it shows across all the senses. This starts with the wine's appearance, which is bright, saturated, ruby-colored and luminous all at the same time. The aromas emerge from the glass with vertical intensity, imparting fresh notes of wild berry, licorice, balsam herb and dried rose hip. This highly successful vintage stands apart for the power and clarity of fruit it puts so generously on display. If you are lucky enough to own a bottle, I'd store it at the back of your cellar for many more years to come.
