Fresh and light, the Fanti 2018 Rosso di Montalcino shows classic Sangiovese aromas of wild berry, raspberry, blue flower and balsam wood. This is a slender but impactful Rosso that could pair next to spicy Mexican fajitas with corn tortillas, or any other favorite comfort food. This wine offer pretty brightness and linearity.
The extroverted 2018 Fanti Rosso di Montalcino is showing masses of ripe strawberry, sweet spices and exotic florals with grounding notes of worn leather and hints of undergrowth. Silky textures meld into tart red berries with a peppery-herbal twist, in a soft and easygoing effort that’s energized by bright acids that only come forward toward the finale. A mix of red fruits resonate on the finish, along with wild herbs and florals, punctuating the experience on a Rosso that is very easy to like.
