Brunello di Montalcino Riserva IL Ploggione Vigna Paganelli 75cl,15%

Description

Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Il Poggione Vigna Paganelli 75cl, 15% is the single-vineyard Riserva from Tenuta Il Poggione, produced only in the best vintages and in limited quantity. The producer’s official technical sheet for the 15% bottling shows that it comes exclusively from Vigna Paganelli, the estate’s oldest vineyard, planted in 1964, and that it is made from 100% Sangiovese.

What gives this bottle extra appeal is the way vineyard identity, maturity and classic Brunello structure come together in one wine. Il Poggione states that the grapes are selected by hand from the best and ripest bunches, then vinified in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts before long ageing in French oak barrels and further bottle ageing.

Why Choose Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Il Poggione Vigna Paganelli 75cl, 15%

Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Il Poggione Vigna Paganelli 75cl, 15% stands out because it is not just a standard Brunello from a major estate.

Collector’s Note

This wine has strong collector appeal because it sits above standard Brunello as a vineyard-designated Riserva from Il Poggione’s oldest vineyard. The official producer material makes clear that it is reserved for the best vintages and produced in limited quantity, which gives it more weight than a regular estate bottling.

It is also attractive because the wine’s identity is very clearly defined. Single-vineyard sourcing, hand selection, indigenous-yeast fermentation, long French-oak ageing and further bottle maturation all reinforce the impression of a serious traditional Brunello built for long-term appreciation.
