Biondi-Santi Rosso di Montalcino DOC — 2017 – Decanter – 91 Points
91 points
Lying on one of the highest parts of Montalcino’s southeast hillsides, the signature character of Biondi-Santi is the extreme freshness of fruit and firm acidity, [and] the selection of younger vines [for the Rosso] enhances even more the fresh character of the wine. This wine is focused on red currants and pomegranate, with black pepper and earthy tones….A cherry flavor shines, and it displays super-refined tannins and lifted acidity.
