The entire Poggio Antico property, villas, winery, vineyards and more, sits near the top of a hill, just a couple miles south of the village. It’s one of the highest elevation estates in Tuscany, but it is also easily accessible to visitors of all types. Many casual wine lovers who visit Montalcino find themselves enjoying Poggio Antico while taking in some excellent views.

Perhaps the focus on wine tourism the past couple of decades has occasionally detracted from the wines themselves, but that has been changing too. The farming has been practicing organic for almost 10 years and will be certified soon. Though they continue to use innovative methods in the winery, the focus has increasingly shifted to producing, classic, old-school expressions of Sangiovese.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 94
"The Poggio Antico 2019 Brunello di Montalcino has a pretty bouquet with a unique set of aromas that recall dried cherries with hints of rose potpourri or fragrant acacia wood. Those delicate floral notes give lift and energy to the bouquet. The only distraction is the 15% alcohol content. Otherwise, this wine is a good example of a classic vintage." -Robert Parker

Decanter

D 93
"Poggio Antico’s high-altitude vineyards are almost dead centre in the appellation. They are characterised by constant breezes – both from the Tyrrhenian Sea to the west and Monte Amiata to the southeast – as well as significant diurnal temperature differences. Very fragrant and animated, this brings together scents of Mediterranean forest, pine and garden-fresh mint with cooler juniper and pepper notes. Very smooth and polished, the palate sports almost a glossy sheen. It is deliciously plump and weighted with layers of ripe, macerated cherry countered by chinotto bitters. There is more tension coming from the tangy acid than the soft tannins. Finishes with cinnamon spice."

Wine Spectator

WS 94
"A blast of pure cherry fruit erupts from the glass, with iron, tobacco and spice notes adding complexity. Lively and balanced, showing a chalky feel to its tannins on the lingering finish."
