Winemaker Notes

The sunny character of the 2010 Brunello speaks of a warm vintage with sweet, yet fragrant fruit, not at all rich, sporting prominent notes of fresh cherries, typical of high-altitude Sangiovese. The fruit arises delicately from a bed of aromatic herbs such as thyme and rosemary with hints of liquorice root. On the palate, the captivating structure reveals silky tannins backed up by the usual sensation of freshness that is instrumental for the fine balance which lies at the heart of the Biondi-Santi tasting experience. The finish is long and surprisingly savoury, adding to the gastronomic personality of this Brunello.
