5 Centuries of Experience Make Great Wine

For over 500 years, the Baroncini family have been growing grapes and olives in the hilltop Tuscan village of San Gimignano. But it is only in the last 50 years that the family has begun making wine, and has expanded their horizons beyond their walled medieval village.

On the site of an ancient Etruscan village, the family has established Poggio Il Castellare. Near the hamlet of Castelnuove dell Abate, in the heart of the production zone of Brunello di Montalcino they are now a rising star in Montalcino.

Their 2004 is a breakthrough wine, both in being the highest quality they have ever produced, and in garnering the raves of the critics that certify their up and coming status.

The Wine Spectator released their much anticipated Top 100 list of 2009 this morning. And at # 11 in the list, the 2004 Poggio Il Castellare Brunello di Montalcino was the highest ranked Brunello from the exceptional 2004 vintage.

Dried dark fruit on the nose, verging on date and prune. Full-bodied, with a dense palate of ripe fruit and supersilky tannins. This is a deep and beautiful red, delivering lots of subtle character. Fascinating. One of the undiscovered treasures of the vintage. Best after 2011. 2,000 cases made.
