Castello Del Poggio

Tenuta Col d'Orcia

Poggio al Vento Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2012

Hot nose, big floral, fat berry, tar, chocolate. Medium dry tannins, lots of oak, takes away a bit from the fruit. Tight. Needs to breathe. I’ll wait to score. After two hours it’s put on weight. Fruit came out and tannins became well integrated. I’d have given it a 87-88 on opening but now it’s a solid 92. — 2 months ago

Castello di Ama

Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2016

Surprisingly dark on the nose with leather, turned earth, undergrowth, some roast… sun dried tomatoes. After a while a fresh orange zest & flowery note emerges to add contrast. Barely any cherry or red fruit. Dumb phase? Queer bottle? And yet - intriguing!
On the palate nicely structured and with fresh acidity. Love the quality of tannins - fine, juicy yet firm. Savoury, just a touch rustic, loads of umami flavour here.
Def. a food wine, and a very nice one, too!
Having this with some pasta, but this begs for a Bisteca Fiorentina!

Castello dei Rampolla

Sammarco Toscana SuperTuscan Blend 1996

Quite deep ruby centre with quite thin garnet rim . Pretty young looking appearance . On the nose there are some cassis , raspberry , with touches of vanilla, dry spices , cedar and mint. On the palate some sweet cassis , raspberry , cherry , grafite , ground coffee, with the vanilla and spice notes of the nose . Balanced acidity with slightly drying tannins. Ok length with a tobacco and coffee tinged finish. Needed a little time to come together and food certainly helped also . This is probably at peak now so I would drink from now over the next 5 -8 years or so . — 4 months ago
