Brunello di Montalcino

From a five-hectare plot in Montalcino’s remote and forested northwest where the 18th century estate is located, Poggio Dorio is suffused with sweet spice and cedar atop macerated cherry. Smooth, polished fruit juxtaposes the muscular tannins and drying oak character. At the moment, this is quite a youthful and austere mouthful yet ultimately feels equalised in its proportions. Appealing bitter orange peel and sarsaparilla add exotic intrigue. Note that Silvio Nardi abstained from producing its Manachiara cru bottling in 2019.
