Fanti Brunello di Montalcino 2020

Filigree complexity here with a multilayered profile, including balsamic tones, not so obvious red cherries and dried fruit, licorice, light camphor and fresh violets. Full-bodied, energetic palate with firm, velvety tannins and a chalky finish. Crisp, integrated acidity. Rich and vibrant, despite some warmth. Best after 2026.

The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino opens in the glass with a burst of black cherries and raspberries complemented by hints of autumnal spices and blood orange. This displays silken textures and depths of ripe red and black fruits that take on a more crunchy sensation of tactile minerals toward the close. Long and intense yet juicy and fresh, the 2020 finishes with a coating of edgy tannins and a tart blackberry tinge that keeps the mouth watering for more.

The 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino is a deep brick red color and offers brooding aromas of toasted cedar, chestnut, spiced plum, and anise. Full-bodied, it has a weightless feel on the palate, with supple, ripe tannins, earthy notes of black truffle, and a rich, chocolaty texture through the finish. It's showing well now and will be best enjoyed over the next 5-6 years. Drink 2025-2030.
