The text you provided is a description of the Biondi Santi Tenuta Il Greppo Brunello Riserva 2008 wine. It includes information about: * **The weather conditions during the growing season:** The 2008 vintage had a regular growing season with a humid spring, a long and warm summer with well-distributed rainfall, and a cool harvest with light rain. The harvest began on September 10th. * **The origin of the grapes:** The wine is made with the Sangiovese Grosso BBS11 clone, selected and cultivated by Biondi-Santi at Tenuta Greppo since the 1970s. The grapes used for this Riserva come exclusively from vines over 25 years old. * **Aging process:** The wine was aged for 3 years in Slavonian oak barrels and then underwent a long aging process in bottle in the "La Storica" cellar, a special aging room at Tenuta Greppo where all historical vintages of Biondi-Santi Riserva are carefully preserved. * **Tasting notes:** The 2008 Riserva is described as a delicate and graceful wine with a complex aroma of cherry, red orange, and violet, followed by notes of candied orange, oriental spices, goudron, licorice, and a hint of flint. On the palate, it is precise and expressive, with great structure and energy, offering a long and delightful finish.
