2010 | La Fornace | Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG

2010 La Fornace Brunello di Montalcino Riserva shows Aromas of underbrush, leather, dried plum, a whiff of French oak and a balsamic note lead the nose. The firm palate offers dried cherry, cranberry, licorice and espresso set against close-grained that leave a firm finish.

Producer Information

La Fornace was born with the 1987 vintage. The farm sits at 400 meters with an E/SE exposition on sandy soils. The winery produces about 1,250 cases a year and farms organically. Fabio Gianetti, who took over from his father 1998, makes a style of Brunello that I really like. The wines have plenty of dark fruit, acid, and minerality, but they also have a brambly quality that I have always loved. I sold Fabio’s wines in my first wine job and had always hoped I would have an opportunity to reunite with him. This is a true working, family farm. Everything is done by hand including picking and sorting the grapes. Fabio recently began to introduce concrete tanks at the winery and the initial results are very impressive.
