Biondi Santi, Brunello di Montalcino 2016

Brunello di Montalcino 2016’s deep ruby red color is a testament to its intensity, while its aromas of ripe red fruits, spices and leather create a captivating bouquet. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with a perfect balance between acidity and tannins. The palate is complex and nuanced with notes of black cherry, plum, tobacco and vanilla.

VINTAGE 2016
A majestic vintage where structure, elegance and freshness combine to form something special. 2016 was a hot and dry year with
consistently warm temperatures from May to August, allowing the grapes to reach perfect ripeness with sweet yet
fragrant aromas. The harvest started on September 21st. ORIGIN
Brunello 2016 was produced exclusively with a selection of grapes from our proprietary vineyards. AGEING
Brunello 2016 was aged in Slavonian oak barrels for 3 years.

For the first time in history, Biondi-Santi produced this wine in 750 ml and Magnum bottles.

 

Brunello 2016 is a wine with light and energy. On the nose, crisp notes of tart cherries, blood oranges and small red berry fruits are accompanied by scents of Mediterranean balsamic herbs and a hint of flint. On the palate, energy, sweet fruit and silky tannins create a caressing sense of elegance and balance that leads us towards a lingering finish with a distinctly savory touch – fresh and pure.
ORIGIN
Brunello 2016 was produced exclusively with a selection of Sangiovese Grosso from our proprietary vineyards.

Producers

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany is a hidden gem that has been producing some of the world’s finest wines for over 600 years. Tenuta IL Greppo is a family-owned winery that has been passed down from generation to generation, each adding their own touch to the vineyards and cellars.
The history of this winery begins in the 14th century when the Biondi-Santi family first began planting vines on the hillsides surrounding their property. It wasn’t until the mid-19th century that Clemente Santi, a descendant of the original owners, began experimenting with Sangiovese grapes and created what would become known as Brunello di Montalcino. Since then, Tenuta IL Greppo has become synonymous with quality and excellence in winemaking. The vineyards are carefully tended by hand, with each grape carefully selected for its ripeness and flavor profile. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for several years before being bottled and released to the public. What sets Tenuta IL Greppo apart from other wineries is their commitment to tradition and innovation. While they still use traditional winemaking methods, they are not afraid to experiment with new techniques and technologies to improve their wines. But perhaps the most surprising turning point in this story came in 2010 when Jacopo Biondi Santi decided to leave his family winery and start his own business. Many thought he was crazy to leave such a prestigious name behind, but Jacopo knew he wanted to create something unique and different. And so he founded Podere Le Ripi, a biodynamic winery just a few miles away from Tenuta IL Greppo. Today, both wineries continue to produce exceptional wines that showcase the best of the Tuscan terroir.
