The Historic Il Poggione Estate

Located near Sant'Angelo in Colle, on the southern slopes of Montalcino, Tenuta Il Poggione is among the region's most respected traditional Brunello producers.

The estate has remained in the Franceschi family for generations, developing a reputation for producing wines that combine rich Tuscan fruit with exceptional structure and longevity.

Its vineyards benefit from warm Mediterranean influences, favorable elevations, and distinctive soils that allow Sangiovese to develop concentration while maintaining freshness.

Il Poggione's traditional approach emphasizes careful vineyard management, patient maturation, and the authentic expression of Montalcino terroir.

Traditional Brunello Craftsmanship

Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino is produced exclusively from Sangiovese grapes harvested from the estate's mature vineyards.

Following fermentation, the wine undergoes extended maturation in large French oak casks.

These traditional barrels allow the wine to develop complexity without overwhelming the natural character of Sangiovese.

Additional bottle aging creates a harmonious balance between vibrant acidity, concentrated fruit, and refined tannins.

The resulting wine is celebrated for its impressive structure and ability to evolve beautifully with proper cellaring.
