winemaker's notes:

Intense ruby-red color. Fruity bouquet with red berry notes. Very well structured, mellow, long-lasting flavour with smooth, velvety tannins.

alcohol by volume: 14.0%

critical acclaim:

"The 2010 Rosso di Montalcino captures the essence of this great Montalcino vintage. An elegant, expressive bouquet gives way to layers of vibrant fruit in this energetic, totally polished Rosso. After several years of experimenting with a more accessible style of Rosso, Il Poggione has moved back to making the firm, structured style of Rosso for which the estate is famous. Fabrizio and Alessandro Bindocci showed me their 2010 Rosso after all the Brunellos from vintages 2006-2010, plus several older vintages including 1983, 1991, 1998 and 2003. No matter, the 2010 Rosso was great. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2030."

rating (2/26/2013):

A very stuctured Rosso which was a bit shut down when first opened but got better with time and air. Good core of fruit with quit a bit of spice as well. Tanins are soft and well integrated. Nice long finish. Migt be even better in a year or two.
