Parker über Brunello di Montalcino Greppo Annata 2001
The medium-red 2001 Brunello di Montalcino is an austere wine that seems to be built for tertiary development rather than for an expression of fruit. It is a medium-bodied yet structured Brunello with a modest, compressed core of red fruit, licorice and menthol flavors, displaying good overall length. Although several hours of air helped, this wine never became particularly expressive over the week I followed it.

Brunello di Montalcino Greppo Annata 2001
It is rare that the origin of a wine can be traced back to a single man. However, Brunello di Montalcino owes its existence to the inventiveness of Clemente Santi and his nephew Ferruccio Biondi-Santi, who began to vinify Sangiovese Grosso in its purest form in Montalcino in the 1900s.
Since 1888, the first Brunello vintage in history, Biondi-Santi has been producing wines known for their elegance and exceptional longevity.
