Decanter: 92 Punkte
A new wine for Poggio Antico ushering in the winery’s change in ownership, I Poggi is a vineyard rather than cask selection. The 2.5 hectare plot was harvested on three different days to give both freshness and concentration. Intense cedar forest aromas are joined by balsamic herb and spicy oak. Dense and substantial, the palate offers a lot to like. Bright acidity lifts as does a suggestion of bergamot tea. Perceptible wood notes from new casks still need to integrate but grainy tannins should carry this well into the next decade.
