Rosso di Montalcino “Greppo” DOC 2019

Tenuta Greppo di Jacopo Biondi Santi | Tuscany
Franco Biondi Santi Tenuta Greppo | Villa Greppo 183 | IT 53024 Montalcino

The Rosso di Montalcino comes from slightly younger Brunello vines and is aged for 12 months in large oak barrels. It undoubtedly bears the signature of the top winery Biondi Santi: delicately sweet open bouquet of red berries, flowers and clove. The Rosso, like all the other wines of the winery, is of classic and firm style, with a bombastic structure and a brilliant, long finish. True to the house, it also has a long ageing potential and can compete with some Brunellos of the appellation today and the day after tomorrow. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, radiant ruby red. Finely fragrant nose of ripe red berries, rose hips, a hint of dried citrus fruit, noble wood and some delicate leather spice. On the palate, polished and tightly woven, with a gently creamy entry, comes along in many layers, punchy and with clear, precise length." Falstaff

"The 2019 Rosso di Montalcino keeps me returning to the glass to savour its dusty blend of dried strawberries and currants, underlined by nuances of shaved pine and mint. Soft and round in expression, the 2019 impresses with its lush textures and vibrant wild berry fruit. All the while, a core of saline tension builds, blending minerals with gentle tannins as the 2019 finishes with a touch of concentration yet retains a lovely freshness." Vinous

"Aromas of sliced citrus, cherries and flowers follow through to a medium body, with creamy tannins and crisp fruit on the finish. A lovely combination of fruit and acidity. Very drinkable now, but it will age well." James Suckling

"Rosso di Montalcino 2019, which convinces with its pure bouquet and lively fruit. It shows very detailed and chiselled aromas of wild cherry, cassis, dried violets, rust and orange peel. The wine has a strong structural framework, but the mouthfeel is still ethereal and light." Wine Advocate
