Originally this wine was known as “Brunello Etichetta Bianca” and was renamed Rosso di Montalcino in 1983 when the DOC was established. Faithful to the style that characterizes all Biondi-Santi wines, the Rosso is distinguished by its fragrant and fruity soul, which makes it perfect to taste even at a young age.
The Rosso di Montalcino 2021 was produced through a careful selection of grapes from the estate's vineyards.
The 2021 harvest was characterized by an autumn and winter with mild temperatures and abundant rainfall, while spring brought an episode of frost on April 6th. From April to mid-August, rainfall decreased dramatically, which caused drought conditions. Summer was characterized by hot temperatures and particular humidity conditions while at the end of August, thanks to temperature variations and some beneficial rainfall, the perfect conditions occurred to complete the ripening of the grapes before harvesting. The harvest began on September 9th.
