Biondi-Santi Brunello di Montalcino 2019
De mythische Brunello van het befaamde wijnhuis Biondi Santi, grondleggers van de Brunello. Krachtig en warm, met tannines die perfect in balans zijn. De 2019-jaargang was genereus en bracht wijnen voort van elegant karakter. Dat betekent mooi van structuur en niet alleen rijp, maar ook fris fruit. Omdat Biondi-Santi de wijngaarden relatief hoog- en noordoostelijk gelegen heeft, maakt het wijnen in een stijl die vaak verfijnder, lichter en subtieler is dan die van veel andere wijnhuizen in de regio.

Robijnrode wijn, met een aroma’s van rozen en bessen. De smaak is mooi van structuur met tannines die in balans zijn. De afdronk is warm en lang aanhoudend. Deze wijn kan zeker 40 jaar worden bewaard om verder te rijpen. De Brunello di Montalcino Annata van Biondi Santi is het resultaat van 200 jaar onderzoek en gemaakt van sangiovese grosso druiven, die zijn geselecteerd van de druivenranken van de Greppo wijngaard. De druivenstokken op deze wijngaard zijn minimaal 12 tot 25 jaar oud. De Brunello’s van Biondi Santi worden nog volledig traditioneel gemaakt en kennen een lange rijpingstijd tot wel 50 jaar.

Bottled in late-March 2024, Biondi Santi’s latest Brunello is built solidly on classic lines. Captivatingly austere, it hints at pomegranate and tea leaf to begin, with balsamic rosemary and sage blossom taking hold as it opens. Neither overtly dense nor powerful, it trades instead on grace and linearity. Firm, al dente tannins stretch out, sculpting a sinewy core of blood orange and pink grapefruit. Nervous energy brings edgy tension, and appetising bitter herbs bring this to an auspicious conclusion.

This wine will be released in March 2025. The Biondi-Santi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino was born in a generous vintage that provided abundant high-quality fruit. The growing season became progressively warmer throughout summer, without heat spikes, and it ended with well-timed rains and a warm autumn. Harvest started in mid-September, and the grapes ripened according to the right parameters without over-ripeness. The wine shows a natural textural richness that is supported by dark fruit, navel orange, tobacco, laurel leaf and Mediterranean herb. There are flinty mineral notes that add to the complexity. This beautiful wine hits a special mark: it offers the ethereal qualities you expect of this celebrated estate, with a good level of austerity to match.

Very perfumed and fragrant with sweet berries and fresh roses that follow through to a medium body with pretty depth of fruit and balance. Racy and driven, there’s a lot going on in the center-palate. The legend lives. Give this a few years to open, but already impressive. Best after 2027.

The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino pulls the taster close to the glass, darkly floral and balsamic at the first tilt. This blossoms with a textbook profile of worn leather, dried rose, dusty earth, spice and dried black cherry. It sweeps across the palate, silky-smooth with hints of ripe red and black fruit underscored by saline mineral tones that add a crunchy yet salty sensation toward the close. It finishes with tremendous length and concentration, lifted by a tinge of sour citrus. Fine-grained tannins resonate under an air of sweet lavender. The 2019 is classic to the core. With this level of depth coming from the anatta, one can only imagine what the riserva will reveal.

Just mid ruby with orange tinges. Brooding and subtle at the same time. Saline, minerally notes and iron, blood orange and cool cherry. And pet shop. Real complexity. Elegant, transparent and fluid on the palate with acidity that is a little vibrant and almost gossamer-like tannins woven into the fruit, but seemingly truthful to the historic style.
