The Biondi-Santi Brunello di Montalcino is the first Brunello in history and, for 150 years, has embodied the vision that inspired Clemente Santi in the 19th century to create his first expression. It is, as it was then, a distinct wine with a complex and refined personality.

THE 2020 VINTAGE
In 2020, a mild and dry winter, characterized by above-average temperatures, was followed by a cool spring marked by significant temperature variations between day and night and an exceptional snowfall on March 26th. Fortunately, it did not cause significant damage to our vineyards as the vines had budded late. June was quite rainy, allowing the soil to accumulate good water reserves. In July and August, the days became hot and dry, while maintaining excellent temperature variations between day and night, which supported the natural balance of the vines and helped develop a good aromatic profile in the grapes. Refreshing rains were recorded at the end of August, shortly before the harvest, which began on September 9th.
ORIGIN
The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino was produced using a careful selection of grapes from the estate's vineyard parcels.
AGING
The 2020 Brunello was vinified in both oak barrels and in concrete and steel tanks, using exclusively indigenous yeasts from our vineyards. It was then aged for 24 months in large Slavonian oak barrels.
