title: Fanti 2009  Brunello di Montalcino
description: Dominated by new oak, it opens with aromas of toasted wood and vanilla that muffle the ripe black fruit sensations struggling in the background. The concentrated palate offers oak, toast, overripe black cherry and vanilla alongside the warmth of alcohol despite the modest 14% abv. The finish is muddled, with sugar-plum sensations cut short by bitter, drying wood tannins.
variety: Sangiovese
