Banfi wines reviewed in Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
|
Castello
Banfi Poggio Alle Mura
Represents
a noticeable step up from the regular bottling. It offers
more expressive aromatics along with darker, riper fruit
and a richlytextured, layered feel on the palate owing
to its greater concentration. Pretty notes of tobacco,
underbrush and minerals develop in the glass, and the
wine finishes with more tannic clout than the regular
bottling, suggesting a greater presence of new oak that
will require a few years to integrate. Anticipated maturity:
20092021
Price:
Php 4,150/ per bottle
