(Automatically translated) Fontalpino is an amazing home! Through this Chianti Classico, you will discover the purity of Sangiovese with its touch of red fruits and supple tannins. It also offers very little acidity which gives a gallant approach. A wine that will charm all Chianti lovers. Delicious!
