Tasting Notes

"Fanti’s 2017 is just about as transparent a response as is possible for a Brunello to show where it comes from, a brushy, herbal and very micro-climatic territorial wine. Some thankfully refreshing rain at the end of August allowed for an extra two to three weeks of hang time so that this Annata could reach phenolic ripeness. Much of the fruit comes from 450m of elevation in nine hectares near San Polo's Podernovi, a fruit source so essential for making a ’17 Brunello of energy and freshness. Very much a Brunello with ample concentration and yet that transparency tells you this is a Fanti. Will make itself available as early as any."

The Producer

Tenuta Fanti

The Fanti family has owned the Tenuta Fanti estate since the early 1700s. It spans 300 hectares in Tuscany, with 52 hectares dedicated to certified sustainable vineyards, 110 hectares to olive orchards boasting 8,500 olive trees, 80 hectares for seed plots, and 70 hectares of forests. Filippo Fanti took over the company's leadership in the early 1970s, steering it towards a focus on high quality, beginning with the revitalization of the soil. He carefully replanted the vineyards and olive trees using sustainable methods, selecting the best plots on the estate. Construction of a modern, spacious gravity flow cellar for winemaking, ageing, and refining began in 2004. Tenuta Fanti is committed to producing sustainably made, top-notch wines that reflect the terroir of Castelnuovo dell'Abate. With Filippo's four decades of winemaking experience and the drive of his daughter Elisa, who joined the family business in 2007, the FANTI brand continues to grow in importance, solidifying its position both domestically and internationally.
