Cantina Della Fattoria

Riserva Biondi-Santi Marca Propria Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2001

Most of the group had this as WOTN, but though it was beautiful and rich, there was a stewed fruit element that kept it off my podium. Otherwise beautiful saddle leather, soft cherry. — 8 years ago

I am learning to like these wines thanks to my friend Bruce Hughes. It needs fat and pepper to cut through the sweetness of the wine. That being said I can appreciate the quality of this wine. — 6 years ago

Brilliant wine. Big red sour cherries, pine resin, sappy undergrowth, very mineral and alpine vibe. Ripe and complex with lovely tart sour cherry. Terrific fine tannins and insane freshness. Wonderful purity and depth. Lovely balance. — 7 years ago

Single vineyard 100% Sangiovese, this 13’ Chianti Classical Riserva displays
fragrant nose of sour cherry, strawberry, thyme, balsamic, incense, hint of violet and barnyard. Great fruit intensity on the palate with lots of earthy nuances. High yet round acidity. Polished grippy tannins lead to an elegant long finish.
This would stand tall to a lot of BdM.
