inky ruby in the glass

complemented by a velvety and intense acidity that encourages repeated sips

this has lovely purity in its varietal expression of Garnacha (60 percent of the blend) with red fruit and floral notes

Floats on the palate like you are in the clouds

there are elements of cherry and raspberry notes that mingle with a kind of forest floor woodsy character

2018 | Biondi Santi Greppo Riserva | Brunello di Montalcino Chateau Petit-Figeac inky ruby in the glassReally pretty aromas of red cherries, cedar, flowers and flint. This has medium to full body, juicy fruit, fine tannins and a long, long finish. The texture is very impressive with ultrafine, velvety tannins. Caresses the palate, building at the end. Linear and structured. Very Biondi Santi in its nature with the direct drive in the finish. Drink after 2028. 97 Pts James Suckling
