Il Poggione 2018 Vermentino/Chardonnay 750ml
Winemaker's Note: It has straw yellow color. On the nose, flowers and tropical fruits. On the palate, dry, fresh with mineral notes. Harmonizes well with white meats and fish.
Mount Eden 2016 Estate Pinot Noir 750ml
The 2015 Pinot Noir has softened nicely since I last tasted it, although the aromatics remain a bit reticent, most likely because of the 35% whole clusters used that year. There is lovely richness...
Description
Il Poggione has one of the appellation's most enviable track records for quality and cellar longevity. The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino is a different beast. This wine prizes elegance, finesse and a compact mouthfeel. I would suggest a slightly shorter drinking window of approximately ten years. No matter how you cut it, the wine is absolutely beautiful and indeed ranks high on a list of favorite wines from the vintage. The bouquet is chiseled and tight with wild blueberry, plum, red rose and a touch of cherry confit. No doubt the mouthfeel is thinner in this vintage, but the wine has plenty more going on to keep your attention. I'm liking it. I went back to the bottle a few days after it had been opened and the wine was still going strong.
Score: 94 points -- Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate, 2019
