Description

Italy / Tuscany / Brunello di Montalcino / Il Vignone

The Poggio Antico winery is located on a rocky outcrop at 450 meters above sea level in the Montalcino region, a unique position within Brunello. Due to its high elevation, a constant fresh breeze blows – this cooling influence, combined with the Tuscan sun, lends the wines their special elegance and finesse. The winery meticulously cultivates its vines, sustainably since 2020, thus achieving healthy and ripe grapes which are rigorously selected in the cellar. A Riserva is only bottled every few years, as all conditions must be perfect to achieve an exceptionally long aging potential.

Origin in Focus

Tuscany

Tuscany is one of Italy’s defining wine regions, known for Sangiovese and iconic appellations such as Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. The Mediterranean climate with sea breezes and diverse soils produces elegant, fresh wines with structure. On the coast, ‘Super Tuscans’ are also made from Cabernet, Merlot and other varieties. In addition to red wines, the region offers characterful whites such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano and Vermentino, as well as the traditional dessert wine Vin Santo. The result: tradition meets innovation – with clear terroir expression and great drinking pleasure.
