DNV has certified the special characteristics of three Tenuta Il Poggione wines.

For the first time a Brunello di Montalcino wine is certified.

For the first time a Brunello di Montalcino wine can boast of this pro-duct certification. DNV has certified Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG, and Rosso di Montalcino DOC – all wines produced by Tenuta Il Poggione in Tuscany, Italy.

The special characteristics of these wines are defined in the technical product specification issued by DNV. For example, Il Poggione Brunello di Montalcino and Brunello di Montalcino Riserva are aged in wooden barrels and refined in bottles for longer than the period established by DOCG (controlled and guaranteed designation of origin) regulations.
