Brambleberry, orange-peel and dark-cherry aromas follow through to a medium body with extremely polished, fine tannins that melt into the wine. Classy and pretty. Very drinkable now, but better in a year or two.

Packaged in a beautiful bottle with a gold label and embossed glass, the Belpoggio 2015 Brunello di Montalcino is a "familiar face" among Sangiovese fans. This is a dark but essentially mid-weight expression with good fruit intensity and a great pair with agnolotti alla toscana (or veal ravioli). Black cherry and plum segue to spice, tar and soft medicinal herb. The wine glides smoothly and without a care over the palate. Some 16,000 bottles were made.

The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a lush and layered expression that shows a dark and rich side of Sangiovese. Sweet fruit and Morello cherry lift first from the glass with impressive intensity. After a few brief moments, the wine begins to show delicate nuances of cinnamon, nutmeg, grilled herb, ash and smoke. Ultimately, the wine delivers more bang to the nose and follows with a tight, streamlined mouthfeel. I would suggest keeping this bottle in your cellar for three to five more years before popping the cork.

The main core is cherry, with plum and supporting roles of leather, tea and tobacco. It finishes on the dry side, yet stays within bounds and will be fine with pasta and a meat sauce. Drink now through 2020. 1,500 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add

Enrico Martellozzo's 2009 Brunello di Montalcino comes from a five-hectare vineyard located a stone-s throw away from the sun-drenched abbey at Castelnuovo dell'Abate. In line with the characteristics of this subzone that include darker more structured wines, Belpoggio-s rendition is deeply laden with ripe fruit, clove and baking spice. The wine does not boast huge complexity or any great degree of finesse, but it is a well-made expression with a friendly, upfront and immediate style that works well. This Brunello is built to drink within the next three to five years. Drink: 2015-2021. Importer: Wine Worldwide, www.wineworldwide.com
