The 1997 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio al Vento is, as always, one of the last wines of the appellation to be released, and demonstrates the virtues, but also the limits, of the vintage. The garnet color is dark but beginning to mature, the nose of plums, truffles, and Mediterranean brush expansive and classic, and the palate is broad, very solid, firm and meaty on the flow and finish and with ample power in reserve. But the freshness, the fruit, and the vibrancy of less unrelievedly hot vintages are not there. Drink: 2005-2017. Importer: Palm Bay International, Port Washington, NY; tel. (516) 802-4700.

Medium ruby, with a garnet edge. Aromas of dried flowers, raspberry and cherry. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and focused fruit. Racy style. Lots of fruit, yet closed and reserved still. Needs more time.--1997 Italian blind retrospective. Best after 2009. 1,500 cases made, 150 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
