Tasting Notes: Aromas recall tart black cherries, leather, fresh-cut vanilla bean and oak on the Fontodi Chianti Classico. The palate is so well-crafted with a silky ball of tannins surrounded by layers of blue and red fruit and enveloping acidity. A long finish marks this delightful Chianti Classico; tart cherries giving way to darker berry fruit; plenty of acidity to balance the supple tannins.
Estate History: Fontodi has belonged to the Manetti family since 1968. The family has been associated for centuries with another activity typical of the Chianti region, the production of its famous “terrecotte” tiles. And it is in the name of this strong link with the territory and a great passion for quality that the estate has moved successfully towards an ever more attentive cultivation of the vineyards and a more profound knowledge of the potential of Sangiovese in the zone of Panzano.
