Col d'Orcia's Poggio al Vento or 'windy hill' vineyard gets the afternoon sun but ripens slowly, creating a rich wine which is anything but heavy. Fruit expression in the 2004 is clear and purposeful, the tannins beneath have smoothed over time, leaving the red fruit notes fully expressed above a saline undertow. An old school Brunello in the best sense. Drinking window: 2021-2035. Score - 98. (Monty Waldin, decanter.com, Oct. 17, 2021)

Col d'Orcia's flagship Brunello is made in a traditional style in the best sense, offering versatile, clear-fruited Sangiovese with the structure and brightness of fruit to give long drinking windows and good value. A tidy, bright, juicy Brunello with no sense of over-ripeness. Drinking window: 2021-2035. Score - 98. (Monty Waldin, decanter.com, May 8, 2021)
