Fontodi
Located in the famed Conca d’Oro of Panzano, the traditional wine productions of Fontodi have amazed both collectors and critics for decades. Fontodi is fortunate to have not only its unique terroir - characterized by high-altitudes, calcar clay-schist soil, great sun-exposure and above all, the beneficial warm and dry micro-climate – but also the commitment of Giovanni Manetti in the vineyards. Under the ownership of the Manetti family since 1968, their Tuscan heritage dates back centuries as terracotta tile producers. The large 130-hectare property is certified organic with 70-hectares dedicated to vines. The long-term support of vintner, Franco Bernabei has also greatly influenced the winery’s reputation, crafting six refined reds, and one barrel-fermented white. Flaccianello della Pieve was one of first pure Sangiovese Tuscan wines, that consistently ranks amongst the best. Chianti Classico is a reference-point Fontodi, that is difficult to emulate. Not to mention their Chianti Classico Riserva, Vigna del Sorbo is a step above the rest – it is a bold, intense genuine Tuscan.
