Brunello di Montalcino Poggio Al Carro Celestino Pecci 2016 (750ML)

95 Points, Eric Guido, Vinous: "Totally classic and showing wonderful depth, the 2016 Celestino Pecci Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Carro blossoms with a display of black cherry wrapped in sweet herbs and tobacco, dusty earth tones and hints of clove. It shows the weight and youthful density of the vintage, perfectly offset by stimulating acids and cascading minerality, taking on a crystalline feel as its fine tannins settle in. The youthfully brooding Poggio al Carro tempts your imagination with what will be revealed over time; as today, it’s just wave after wave of dark fruits under an air of savory herbs, spice and tobacco. Like the better wines of the year, you’ll find yourself wanting to take another sip, even as your palate aches under its structural clout."

96 Points, James Suckling: " This is very polished and integrated with black-cherry, dark-chocolate, black-walnut, and dark-mushroom aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied and layered with chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Drink after 2023."
