Tasting Notes
Tancredi Biondi Santi calls the 2015 vintage incredible, and believes it could be superior to 2010. The first taste of this vintage is from the Rosso di Montalcino, released in June 2018. It is made from the estate's vines aged between 5-10 years, and the wine is aged for a year in Slavonian oak casks. While it doesn't have the density or complexity of a Brunello, it is a gorgeous expression of pure and crunchy red cherry and raspberry fruit, layered with green tea, rose, orange peel and sweet earth. The tannins are like fine powder, dissolving slowly to leave behind a lingering minerality. Absolutely succulent, and an auspicious harbinger of Biondi Santi's 2015 Brunellos. Drinking window: 2019-2025. Score - 92. (Michaela Morris, decanter.com, Feb. 15, 2018)
