Villa Poggio Salvi 2007 Riserva Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
Here is a balanced and generous expression from the wonderful 2007 vintage that shows integrated oak tones against ripe cherry, blackberry and prune. There’s a dusty background note of brimstone and wet river stone that gives this Brunello riserva an extra touch of sophistication. Elegance is this wine’s strong suit.

Villa Poggio Salvi 2000 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $65
Offers an attractive and smoky bouquet, which might indicate that it has the fullness and depth to run long. However, it’s fairly compact and juicy on the palate, with cherry, berry and vanilla in control. On the money, if a bit tannic. Ageworthy, too. Imported by Remy Cointreau.
