Biondi Santi Brunello Di Montalcino 2013

Biondi Santi is the historical vineyard of Montalcino, this Brunello is made with 100% Sangiovese Grosso. The vines are between 10 and 25 years old, allowing for a  very high quality grape. After the fermentation this wine is aged for 36 months in Slovanian oak casks before being refined in the bottle for another couple of years. Which gives this brunello a long longevity for up to 40years. Great wine for the cellar. Before drinking this wine should be opened and left breath for at least 5 hours or they say 1 hour for every year. Brunello is a great wine that deserves something substantial, roast lamb, pot roast pheasant, roast squab with truffles or that most famous dish of all Fiorentine steak, Tuscan-style steak, locally sourced from the Chianina meat.
