Biondi Santi - Tenuta Greppo Rosso Di Montalcino 2019 Ml. 750
Winery Biondi Santi
Characteristic
A wine of great finesse and structure with an intense ruby red colour that lessens with age. Characteristic and intense perfume, delicate and harmonic, with a light scent of vanilla and flowering vineyards. It is a wine of ample taste, warm and persistent, of great harmony and flavour. In well-aged bottles of Riserva there is a scent of goudron and flint. Thanks to the perfect organoleptic characteristics, the long ageing in slavonian oak casks and the long ageing in the bottle, Brunello Biondi Santi is a wine of great longevity, even over a hundred years. The grapes (Sangiovese grosso) for normal Brunello, that we call Annata, grow in the over 10 year old vineyards of Greppo. The Riserva, on the other hand, is produced from vineyards of over 25 years of age and is made only in exceptionally good years. The basic characteristic of the Brunello of Greppo Biondi Santi is its longevity. In the cellar of the estate there are still bottles of over 100 years of age prefectly conserved. An exceptional service is the topping up (ricolmatura) of these precious bottles in accordance with precise rules that include the presence of witnesses.
To allow the flavour to fully unfold, the bottle should be opened and the first source of wine poured out at least 8 hours before drinking.
