90 pts - Antonio Galloni
Fanti's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Vallocchio is a bit richer through the mid-palate and finish than the straight Brunello. Smoke, tobacco, cedar and new leather fill out the wine's ample frame nicely. Silky tannins convey an impression of silkiness and textural finesse, while the greater presence of oak has given the wine more open and slightly mature aromatics. Here, too, there is plenty to admire. Last tasted Feb 2015; Drink Now - 2025.
