The Biondi-Santi company has been known throughout the world as the universal ambassador of Brunello di Montalcino since the end of the 19th century. Clemente Biondi Santi was the first to bottle the red wine produced in his vineyards under the name of Brunello di Montalcino in 1865. Thanks to his work and his intuition about the great qualities of the Montalcino terroir and in particular of the Greppo estate, a great wine among the best in the world was born. The Biondi-Santi il Greppo estate can count on a vineyard area of twenty-six hectares, characterized by terraced vineyards cultivated exclusively in Sangiovese with very low yields per hectare. For 7 generations the Biondi Santi family has ensured the excellence of its wines, producing wines of rare elegance and longevity, which seem to be eternal.
