About the Biondi-Santi Tenuta Greppo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 1998
The Biondi-Santi Tenuta Greppo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 1998 is a classic, highly elegant vintage that has transitioned from an initially "under-the-radar" release to one praised for its remarkable longevity and refined complexity. Produced from the estate’s proprietary BBS11 clone using vines over 25 years old, it was aged for three years in Slavonian oak before finishing its maturation in the "La Storica" bottle library.
98 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Boasting alluring scents of new leather, truffle, camphor, pipe tobacco and just a whiff of tar, this just re-released Riserva from the estate's cellar is absolutely gorgeous. Loaded with finesse, the polished, vibrant palate delivers dried cherry, orange zest, cinnamon and nutmeg alongside silky, smooth tannins before finishing on a note of black tea. Still amazingly fresh and going strong. Drink through 2048.
97 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
These back vintages are available to purchase by special request. The 1998 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva comes from an under-the-radar vintage that has blossomed today. The aging potential of these Riservas from Il Greppo must be tasted to be believed. Driven by fresh acidity that remains firm and taut, this wine reveals a dark garnet color and mid-weight concentration. The bouquet presents a careful succession of dried berry, forest floor and spice aromas that builds in intensity as the wine warms in the glass. The wine hits the palate with immediate brilliance and sparkle. This bottle is at its drinking prime right now. It's a true beauty.
