This 2013 Biondi-Santi Brunello di Montalcino Riserva, from the historic Greppo estate, embodies the pinnacle of traditional Sangiovese. On the nose, expect a complex bouquet of dried red cherries, plums, and wild berries, interwoven with savory notes of dried herbs, leather, tobacco, and balsamic undertones. The palate reveals a wine of significant structure and elegance, with firm yet refined tannins and a vibrant acidity that promises longevity. Layers of dark fruit persist, evolving into tertiary notes of forest floor, spice, and a hint of game. The finish is exceptionally long, powerful, and impeccably balanced, showcasing the wine’s remarkable depth and pedigree.
