Critics reviews
The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino is simply stunning, lifting from the glass with vivid raspberry and cherry notes complemented by sweet rose, clove and cedar. This model of purity is silky and refined, with a dusty feel to its ripe red berry fruits. Orange notes add contrast toward the close. It finishes structured and long, still remarkably pure, with a slightly bitter tinge that slowly fades. This fabulous Rosso from Biondi-Santi shows the work done over the past years.

Pale ruby. Lightly dusty nose. Real spread of textured, sweet fruit all the way over the palate with real drive and grip on the finish. Admirably long. Really very exciting! Pure, fully ripe Sangiovese – sorry, Brunello. Vigorous and a great balance between fruit and the natural tannin and acidity of the grape. Just glorious! Already a great drink but with enough ripe tannin to go on and on. A tip: do not drink this at the same time as Biondi-Santi’s Brunellos, however.
