Understanding Biondi-Santi, Brunello di Montalcino, Riserva, Tuscany
Harvested by hand at their optimal ripeness, the Sangiovese grapes undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks. The wine is then matured in Slavonian oak casks, allowing the tannins to soften and flavors to develop over an extended period. This careful approach results in a Brunello Riserva of striking depth, balance, and longevity.
