(Automatically translated) Chianti ambitious but balanced, one of the most beautiful estates in Tuscany. Complex nose, fine tannins, texture and length in the mouth. Everything is there to please. To drink now or to keep for a few years.

(Automatically translated) The baby of the estate! In fact it could be called Riserva but at Fontodi, it is preferred by its simplest denominator. This is an excellent postcard of the appellation. Cherry, anise, leather and a slight woody. Perfect for meats and lamb. A great reference in Chianti.
