Tasting Notes
One of the greats of Chianti Classico. This pure expression of Sangiovese sees 2 years in neutral oak and bottle before release. Medium bodied, seductive and deductive. It's a wine of balance, interest and reliability. Will age well over a decade. - Chris L
Fontodi is located in the heart of Chianti Classico precisely in the valley which lies south of the town of Panzano and is called the 'Conca d'Oro " (the golden shell) because of its amphitheatre shape. A genuine and characteristc 'Terroir ", famous for centuries for its tradition of quality wine cultivation, thanks to a unique combination of high altitude, calcar clayschist soil, lots of light, and a fantastic micro-climate ‚– warm and dry with a marked difference in day and night-time temperatures. - Importer Note
