Poggio di Sotto's unique style is derived in part from the winery's use of long fermentations and indigenous yeasts. The fermentation initiates spontaneously in truncated oak vats where it continues unabated for at least thirty days, on average. Following fermentation, Poggio di Sotto Brunello di Montalcino Riserva rests in 30hl Slavonian oak casks for 52 months. The finished wine is bottled unfiltered.

Parallels to the red wines of Burgundy abound in discussions of Poggio di Sotto. The Sangiovese wines released from this special property do always favor elegance and restraint over opulence and power, yet they never lack depth. Normally a paler hue of ruby than other Brunello wines, Poggio di Sotto’s tameness of color belies concentrated aromas and flavors. The Brunello Riserva reflects the characteristics of its vintage, but with a degree of power and purity that is incomparable. A classic wine from one of the world’s great wine regions.

Equally at home with flavorful meats from the grill as with refined and layered dishes. Considered a "Vino da Meditazione," Poggio di Sotto Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is also enjoyable on its own.
