Fantini Three Dreamers
100% Montepulciano. Deep dark ruby red with violet highlights. Aromas of raisin, blackberry, sour cherry, cinnamon, vanilla and dark chocolate. A powerful rush of cocoa, with notes of jammy black currant, mocha, and toffee. The seamless, powdery tannins frames the perfect acidity; long finish.
“The goal of the winery is to produce wines of excellent value and quality that can be enjoyed by all wine aficionados.”
