Val di Suga Poggio al Granchio Brunello di Montalcino 2016
Val di Suga is a pioneer in the production of the terroir-driven Brunello and the only producer making three single-vineyards in three different estates: Vigna del Lago in the North-East, Vinga Spuntali in the South-West and Pogigo al Granchio in the South-East.
Today we have their creme de la creme in a New Jersey exclusive.
The Poggio Al Granchio is situated perfectly in the treasured southeastern corner of Montalcino. Every year it represents Val di Suga’s most interesting and elegant terroir-expression, but in the 2016 vintage it ends up far exceeding expectations.
Four of the major world wine publications came in at 95-points or higher, meaning one of the very best 2016 releases had to wait until 2022. Wine Spectator and Britain’s Decanter came in at 95, Vinous called it a “gorgeous expression of the vintage” and “classically structured and showing only a glimpse of what’s to come” in their 96-point review. But it was The Wine Advocate’s long time top European dog turned solo act Jeb Dunnuck who came in with the highest score, a 98-point review for what he described “as a super-pleasurable wine right out of the gate and will continue to be so over the next 20 or more years.”
