Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Biondi-Santi (Low Fill) 1955

For many, Biondi-Santi is the pinnacle of Brunello di Montalcino with wines known for their classic youthful austerity but considerable capacity to age. The 1955 Riserva was produced exclusively with estate-grown grapes sourced from the oldest vines (over 25 years old). Matured in Slavonian oak barrels for 4 years, followed by long period of bottle-aging in the quiet and darkness of “La Storica”, the bottle library at Tenuta Greppo. An excellent and exceptional harvest. Deemed one of the 12 best wines of the world of the 20th century according to “The Wine Spectator”.
