Product Details:

  • Winemaker/ Owner: Flavio Fanti
  • Varietal: 100% Sangiovese
  • ABV: 14.5%

Sensory Description:

The 2009 vintage presents a developed and harmonious profile, with aromas of dried cherry, plum, and fig layered alongside leather, tobacco, and subtle notes of forest floor. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet composed, with integrated tannins that have softened into a velvety structure. Bright acidity maintains lift and balance, supporting flavors of red fruit, spice, and savory herbs. Secondary notes of cedar, balsamic, and earthy minerality add depth, while the finish is long and persistent, marked by elegance and a gently drying, refined structure that reflects its evolution.

Winemaker’s Background:

La Palazzetta, led by Flavio Fanti, is a boutique estate dedicated to crafting wines that reflect tradition, terroir, and careful aging. With a focus on Sangiovese, the winery emphasizes low-intervention practices and extended maturation to allow each wine to fully express its character. Flavio Fanti’s hands-on approach ensures precision at every stage, resulting in wines that balance power with finesse.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 18 to 20°C in a large red wine glass to allow full aromatic expression. Decant for at least one hour before serving to enhance complexity and soften structure. Ideal with braised meats, roasted game, aged cheeses, and dishes featuring mushrooms or truffles, it is best enjoyed slowly to appreciate its depth and evolution.
