Fanti 1999 Brunello di Montalcino

Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: Fanti / Brunello di Montalcino

Rich, dark and lush, with liqueur-like aromas wafting upward from a sea of purple. An obvious entry into the “modern” category of Brunello. There’s jammy, mouthcoating fruit and only modest acidity. Detractors may find it heavy and bruising, but fans will adore its weight and creaminess.
