Il Poggione continues to impress for an ability to marry exceptional quality with scale and affordability, making these some of the most consumer friendly wines on the planet. Today Il Poggione makes about 200,000 bottles of Brunello and another 180,000 of Rosso, quantities that are simply unbelievable at this level. This year, the estate has a new wine, a sort of 'super-Rosso' that is made in a bigger style than the straight Rosso. Call me nostalgic, but I prefer the regular bottling. One of the other changes here, is that Il Poggione has decided to bottle their Riserva more selectively, which frankly I think is a shame, but also highlights the reality of a Brunello market that is either scorching hot or dead in the water, with no middle ground. The estate struggled to sell their 2003 Riserva through even though it was and remains a magnificent wine because of the perceived poor quality of the vintage, so in the future we will see Riservas only in the very best years. Of course, that does benefit the consumer in that the regular bottling will be clearly strengthened in vintages in which there is no Riserva, 2008 being a great example of that.
