Tenuta Fanti Rosso di Montalcino 2018

Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyThe Tenuta Fanti estate has belonged to the Fanti family since the beginning of the eighteenth century. It extends across 300 hectares in Toscana, 52ha of which are specialized certified sustainable vineyards. Made from 15-20-year-old vines, the wine was fermented for 20-25 days in stainless before ageing for one year in oak barrels, 300L French oak barriques, and 3,000L oak barrels. The wine then aged in a bottle for 7 months before release. Dark cherry is darted with roses, tulips, and spices flooding the slight body. Fine, long tannins guide this to a delicately spiced finish.Tasted: 03 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
