Fontalloro

Information

Description

Fontalloro is a red Toscana IGT made from 100% Sangiovese grapes sourced from vineyards on the border between Chianti Classico and the Colli Senesi, at elevations between 330 and 407 metres above sea level. Vinification includes a 16–20 day maceration in stainless steel followed by ageing in new and first-use French oak barriques for 18–22 months, then additional bottle ageing. The wine shows an intense ruby colour, aromas of Mediterranean herbs, blackcurrant, tobacco and liquorice; the palate is structured, with noticeable tannins and good persistence.
