Description
Le vins s'ouvre sur des notes de cerises, de cassis, de mûres mêlées à des notes de garrigue entremêlées de tabac blond, d'épices et de humus. En bouche, c'est un vin puissant, profond et frais qui s'étire tout en longueur. Sa trame droite tout en rondeur propose un superbe équilibre, ses tanins fins viennent compléter le tableau et l'étirent jusqu'à une finale sapide et interminable... C'est un vin de gastronomie qu'il est déjà agréable de déguster, il conviendra d'attendre quelques années afin qu'il soit en mesure d'exprimer toute sa superbe.
Suggestion gourmande

Avis des Experts
James Suckling
"This is so transparent and beautiful with clarity. Cherry, plum, strawberry, and berry character with some stone and orange. It’s full-bodied and very linear and round with balance and refinement. The tannins are fine and very powdery in texture. Excellent depth. Ripe, yet so energetic. Fresh, vivid and round. Drink or hold."
The Wine Advocate
"The Biondi-Santi 2015 Brunello di Montalcino exudes dark, velvety fruit and concentration while maintaining the signature elegance, suppleness and lithe personalty that distinguishes the iconic Il Greppo estate. I found this new release to be quite distinctive and exquisitely beautiful, setting it apart from many of the past vintages we are most familiar with. This 2015 edition is dark, exuberant and bold, but precise, focused and sharp as well. It will live for years in your cellar, but tasted now in its infancy, the wine shows blackberry, dried cherry, plum and dark cassis. Those dark fruit tones segue to a rich presentation of tar, spice, earth, tobacco and sweet balsam herb. The bouquet offers seamless and smooth transitions. This warm and sunny growing season favored richness and phenolic weight. Wines from Biondi-Santi are made for the long haul, and the fresh acidity that characterizes this estate is the principle reason why. However, I'd argue that this wine from 2015 will evolve over the years not only thanks to the freshness but more so thanks to the important structure of this solid and profound wine."
Wine Spectator
"A combination of plum and cherry fruit and juicy texture introduces this lithe, intense red, which tightens up as it builds to the finish, where a mineral element and fine-grained tannins reign. This lingers, leaving a mouthwatering impression. Best from 2024 through 2047."
