Il fauno is a red wine IGT blend which embodies the diversity of the estate, and is sourced primarily from the Arceno di Sotto, Arceno Curva, Colombaio and San Giovanni Merlot varietal blocks, which form the heart of the blend. Sunshine and mild temperatures allowed the fruit plenty of time to ripen on the vine, leading to lush Merlot and spicy Cabernet Franc components. The nose highlights the cooler part of the vintage expressing cypress, mushrooms and forest floor, with some spices of nutmeg
and cinnamon. On the palate, fruits are rich and powerful dominated by ripe black cherry and plum. The mouthfeel is balanced with soft, silky tannins and vibrant acidity. An uplifting finish with a hint of citrus, lingering dark chocolate and tobacco. This wine will age gracefully for a decade or more.
