Poggio all’Oro 2013

“Poggio all’Oro” vineyard, particularly suited for its favorable microclimate, in the southern slopes of Montalcino.

Produced only in excellent vintages based on a meticulous selection of the harvested grapes. Temperature controlled vinification in Horizon hybrid stainless steel & wood tanks, with skin contact for 12-14 days. Aged in barriques for 30 months, plus at least 12-18 months bottle aging before release.

Estate-bottled in limited quantities only in exceptional years from our finest “Poggio all'Oro” vineyard, where in near perfect conditions of climate, soil and sun the celebrated Sangiovese grape achieves greatness. Aged for a total of five years, including a minimum of two years in French oak barriques, this wine emerges with exceptional depth, character and aging potential.
