Product description

Biondi-Santi's Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 hails from Italy's esteemed Tuscany region, specifically the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG. Established in the late 19th century, Biondi-Santi is credited with pioneering the Brunello style, producing wines renowned for their longevity and elegance.

Wine Description

This 2016 Riserva showcases a vibrant ruby-red hue. The nose reveals complex aromas of ripe red cherries, dried violets, and subtle hints of forest underbrush. On the palate, it is full-bodied with refined tannins, offering flavors of wild berries, licorice, and a touch of balsamic. The wine's bright acidity ensures freshness, leading to a long, harmonious finish. Crafted exclusively from 100% Sangiovese Grosso grapes, this wine is poised to evolve gracefully over the next several decades.
