Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 'Poggio all'Oro' 2012 (750 ml.) Castello Banfi

The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva Poggio all’Oro 2012 Castello Banfi is crafted from Sangiovese grown in a single vineyard and shaped by a warm, dry vintage that yielded lower quantities but exceptional phenolic ripeness. The wine ages for 5 years in total, with just under 3 in French oak barriques, developing layered aromas of cherry in spirit, tobacco, sweet spices and subtle balsamic tones. Its structure is full and enveloping, supported by silky tannins and remarkable depth that balances power and harmony. Perfect with hearty red meats, game and aged cheeses, it offers notable aging potential and a profile of impressive solidity.

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 was Ezio Rivella, one of the greatest Italian oenologists, who immediately believed that due to the richness of the soil and the privileged microclimatic position, the acquired territories would have great development potential. During those years, 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.
