The Fanti Estate, a historic wine-producing property located south of Montalcino, extends over approximately 300 hectares, 50 of which are planted with vineyards. The Fanti family has been making wine in this area for over two centuries, with a constant commitment to enhancing the value of Sangiovese Grosso, the noble grape variety of Brunello. This vintage is part of a series of well-balanced harvests, marked by stable weather conditions that encouraged full ripening of the grapes, yielding excellent aromatic expression and well-integrated tannins. The Brunello di Montalcino by Tenuta Fanti is the result of strict vineyard selection and meticulous vinification, followed by long ageing in oak barrels of various sizes, as per the regulations. The result is a wine of structure, finesse, and longevity, perfectly reflecting the identity of Montalcino’s terroir.

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG – Tenuta Fanti: Tasting Notes

Brilliant ruby red with slight garnet reflections. The bouquet is intense and complex, opening with ripe cherry and plum, then evolving into spicy notes of black pepper, sweet tobacco, and leather. On the palate, it is elegant, full-bodied, and harmonious, with a firm yet silky tannin structure and vibrant acidity that promises excellent ageing potential. The finish is long and persistent, with balsamic and spicy nuances. A Brunello already enjoyable now, but destined to impress even after years of bottle ageing.
