Note di degustazione
Pouring a youthful medium red color, the 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino is attractive and lifted on the nose with ripe red cherries, minty herbs, pressed roses, and spiced orange peel. Medium-bodied, it has an elegant, refined texture and a beautifully balanced profile, with a bright spine of acidity and refreshing salinity through the finish. It’s a wonderful Brunello that offers immediate pleasure but has plenty of structure to age gracefully. Drink 2026-2040.

Showing notable volume and a velvety, approachable texture, the Fanti 2021 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a dusty mineral note that gives way to dark fruit and blackcurrant. The wine carries a powerful 15.5% alcohol content, lending warmth and weight, yet a soft, contemporary mouthfeel makes it accessible despite firm tannins that will guide its evolution with modest cellar aging. Fruit is sourced from roughly 10 hectares on galestro-rich soils, with aging carried out over 30 months in barrique followed by six months in bottle. Production totals 50,000 bottles.
Alluringly dark and perfumed, the 2021 Brunello di Montalcino combines balsamic spices, cedar, mentholated herbs and black cherries. The palate is juicy with soft textures, polished red berry fruits and brisk acidity. Tannins come forward in full force through the finish, yet the mouth waters for more as hints of dark chocolate and licorice fade.
Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. Brooding and balsamic nose with sweet touches but rather closed on the fruit. Sweet-sour cherry fruit with gravelly, bittersweet tannins. Ready now. (WS)
