List of products by brand Biondi Santi

No other winery in Italy is so intimately linked to the origins, history and entire path of its appellation as Biondi Santi al Brunello di Montalcino. A story that has its roots in the nineteenth century, with the first winemaking tests by Clemente Santi, the one who dedicated most of his life to the study of Sangiovese and who saw his "chosen red wine" - in fact Brunello - rewarded - at the Universal Exhibition of Paris in 1865.

The 12 best wines of the 20th century in the world of this selection are: Chateau Margaux 1900, Chateau Petrus 1961, Quinta do Naval Vintage Port Nacional 1931, Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 1941, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanèe-Conti 1937, Brunello di Montalcino Biondi Santi Riserva 1955, Penfolds Grange Hermitage 1955, Chateau d'Yquem 1921, Heitz Cabernet Napa Valley Martha's Vineyard 1974, Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1945, Paul Jaboulet Ainè Hermitage La Chapelle 1961, Chateau Cheval Blanc 1947. 2011 ends with a very important new recognition for the family.

Brunello di Montalcino Biondi Santi 1964 Riserva is selected by Bibenda 2012 as a wine that symbolizes Italy and the 150th anniversary of Italy, also as a recognition of the family's Italian character: Tullio Santi, brother of Clemente, was the first Mayor of Montalcino after the unification of Italy, his father Ferruccio Biondi Santi (seventeen years old) participated with the Tuscan Volunteers in the third war of independence against the Austrian Empire in the Trentino campaign with Garibaldi in 1866.
