FANTI Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Le Macchiarelle 75 cl.

Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Le Macchiarelle comes from the vineyard of the same name and is produced only in the best vintages. The Fanti estate is situated near Castelnuovo dell’Abate, on the southern slope of the Montalcino hill. The property extends over 260 hectares, of which fifty are used for vineyards, in an area with a mild and temperate climate, characterized by soils rich in Galestro and Alberesian rocks, particularly suitable for the cultivation of Sangiovese.
The grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine matures for a period of 24 months in French oak in tonneaux and finishes the refinement with 30 months in bottle.
Ruby red color with garnet reflections, it expresses a bouquet of black fruits, licorice, anise, cloves and undergrowth. The sip is elegant and intense, with firm and enveloping tannins and a persistent finish.
Can be combined with fried and stewed game.

The Tenuta Fanti estate has belonged to the Fanti family since the beginning of the eighteenth century. It extends over 300 hectares in Tuscany, of which 52 hectares are specialized certified sustainable vineyards, 110 hectares are olive plantations with 8,500 olive trees, 80 hectares are used for seed plots and 70 hectares are forests. In the early 1970s, Filippo Fanti became the head of the company and refocused its direction towards high quality, starting with the land. He sustainably replanted the vineyards and olive trees after a careful selection of the most suitable plots on the property. In 2004 construction began on their modern and spacious gravity flow cellar for winemaking, aging and refinement. Tenuta Fanti aims to offer sustainably produced, high quality wines that express the terroir of Castelnuovo dell’ Abate.

Thanks to Filippo’s forty years of experience as a grower and the energy and determination of his daughter Elisa, who joined the family business in 2007, Fanti remains at the forefront of quality Brunello and will continue into the next generation.
