The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva by Poggio dell’Aquila is the pinnacle of the estate’s winemaking. Produced only in exceptional vintages and aged longer for added depth, this Riserva delivers power, elegance, and remarkable complexity.
Profound, structured, and age-worthy, it is a wine that captures the soul of Montalcino.
