Il Poggione Riserva Brunello 1995

Craig Sandler brought this gorgeous bottle of Sangiovese Grosso (the sole varietal in Brunello).   Il Poggione Riserva is dense and heavy with black fruit on the palate.   Its fine tannins are palapable but not out of synch with the balance or character.   This wine is a monster and will continue to improve with age.    $70; 91+ points
