Biondi Santi Tenuta Greppo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva, 2012
'La Storica' is the estate wine library; all the vintages of Biondi-Santi Riserva are scrupulously kept there, benefiting from a long refinement in the bottle and are re-released by the winery directly. Riserva is produced only in outstanding years.
Critic tasting note: "This is the final Riserva to benefit from the late Franco Biondi Santi's masterful hand. It boasts enticing scents of rose, underbrush, red berry, new leather and crushed mint. The chiseled palate features succulent Morello cherry, pomegranate, orange zest, star anise and a hint of tobacco, all framed in taut, polished tannins. Firm acidity lends youthful tension and keeps it impeccably balanced. Drink 2024–2062. Kerin O’Keefe" - 100/100, Wine Enthusiast
