Depth and poise define this 2015 Brunello, as the Biondi-Santi Brunello di Montalcino Riserva layers red and black cherries, rose and dried citrus peel over subtle tobacco, spice and savory earth. The palate is silky yet firmly structured, with luminous acidity and ultra-fine tannins carrying a long, mineral-inflected finish that reflects the vintage’s ripeness without sacrificing the estate’s hallmark restraint and energy.

Brunello di Montalcino by Biondi-Santi is the original, benchmark Brunello, a 100% Sangiovese (BBS11 clone) wine from high-altitude, clay-limestone vineyards around the historic Tenuta Greppo estate in northeastern Montalcino. Crafted with native-yeast fermentations in cement and long aging in large, neutral Slavonian oak casks, it is famed for its understated power, vivid red-fruit purity, and remarkable elegance and longevity, often evolving gracefully for decades.
