Fontodi, Flaccianello della Pieve 2020

£150.00

Fontodi is one of Chianti Classico’s most impressive estates, famed for its wines of elegance, intensity and longevity. Though the Manetti family has owned Fontodi since 1968, they have lived in Chianti for centuries, producing some of Italy’s finest terracotta at their factory in Ferrone.

The ‘Flaccianello della Pieve’, one of the original ‘Super Tuscans’, first produced in 1981, is one of Italy’s most sought-after wines. Made from the estate’s best Sangiovese, it is powerful, fleshy and ages beautifully. This is a wonderful wine, certified organic and practising biodynamics.

This Sangiovese is bright, ruby red in colour. On the nose, aromas of ripe dark cherries, violets and plums, complemented by a hint
of spice. This wine has wonderful structure and the palate is typically rich and full bodied. 14.5% vol.

*We also have it in Magnums!
