Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 'Poggio alle Mura' 2017 (750 ml.) Castello Banfi

The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG “Poggio alle Mura” 2017 by Castello Banfi is produced from carefully selected Sangiovese grapes grown in the historic vineyards surrounding the Castle of Poggio alle Mura, the estate’s core. The 2017 vintage, marked by a warm and dry climate, led to early and concentrated ripening, yielding healthy grapes with great aromatic intensity. Vinification follows strict protocols with a total ageing of about 5 years, including 2 years in French oak barriques and extended bottle ageing, enhancing structure, depth and longevity. The bouquet reveals ripe cherry, plum, sweet spices, tobacco and balsamic notes. On the palate it is powerful, balanced and enveloping, with mature, velvety tannins. Ideal with structured red meats, game, roasts, braised dishes and aged cheeses.

THE COMPANY

Banfi was founded in 1978 thanks to the will of Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani. From the beginning, the two brothers envisioned a large-scale project, integrating quality viticulture with a modern winery with the goal of always maintaining a high quality level of the wines produced. Alongside the Mariani family, Ezio Rivella, one of the greatest Italian enologists, immediately believes that due to the richness of the soil and the privileged microclimatic position, the acquired territories would have great development potential. In those years, the brothers John and Harry also acquired the historic Piedmontese winery Bruzzone, active since 1860 and specialized in the production of sparkling wines, to make it the Piedmontese brand of the group, today Banfi Piemonte.
