Had he 2012 again recently. Stunning nose, floral, violets, rose petals, absolutely seductive on the nose.
Then on to the palate, just beautiful. Still very youthful, of course, but nonetheless showing elegance, no sharp edges, very classy, light on its feet but a wine of obvious breed and depth. Sort of a Lafon Rochet of Brunello.
Not cheap by any means, but not crazily priced either. Is Il Poggione, for the money, the best Brunello out there?
