The 2018 Biondi-Santi Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Tenuta “Greppo” is one of Italy’s most iconic and collectible wines, produced only in exceptional vintages from the estate’s oldest Sangiovese vines. Crafted with extended ageing, the 2018 vintage reflects a cooler year, emphasizing elegance, precision and aromatic complexity over power. The nose is refined and layered, showing red cherry, dried cherry and rose petals, intertwined with notes of leather, cedar, spice and subtle herbs.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering pure red fruit, savoury depth and a beautifully structured profile. The finish is long, elegant and persistent, with remarkable balance and ageing potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a true collector’s Brunello—rare, refined and built to age. Enjoy with extended decanting or cellar for 20+ years. Perfect with bistecca, game or truffle dishes.
