Flaccianello della Pieve Colli Toscana Centrale Sangiovese 2016

Medium ruby core , little more lighter garnet rim . Quite aromatic , spicy red plum , pine resin , red cherry and herbal , tobacco hints . On the palate a little richer and denser than the 2021 , herbal tinged red and dark fruits , pretty high acidity with more dusty tannins . Overall a bigger more structured tannic framed wine . Very long and powerful on the finish . Mineral and fresh summer fruit finish . This is very young still needs probably another decade , but is very promising . Balanced but powerful . Will probably have a longer life than the more refined and elegant 2021 — a month ago

Meriggio Colli Toscana Centrale Sauvignon Blanc

2021 Sauvignon blanc from Tuscany. Categorized as a lowly IGT wine. You don’t think of Italy when you think Sauvignon Blanc. Tropical fruit on the nose — 8 months ago

Filetta di Lamole Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2017

Dry with pronounces tannins. Two hours after decanting, it emergences much smoother and rather nice to drink now. Not quite the standard Fontodi CC, but a very enjoyable wine on its own. — 4 years ago

Vigna del Sorbo Riserva Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 1999

Great drinking moment for this 1999 Del Sorbo. Still lots of good fruit, creamy and soft. Very nice now. — 7 years ago

Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2013

No question that when the right wine is aged to the right point, there’s nothing better. What an experience it was to.. first, go to this winery in 2008 and meet the people the run it, and then drink this beauty in 2024 and relive that magic while enjoying the poetry inside the bottle. — 5 months ago

I’ve never had a Fontodi that failed to shine. The Flaccianello is superb, but the Chianti Classico is no shrinking violet.

Chianti Superiore Sangiovese 2020

From a corner of Chianti near Siena* https://www.google.com/search?q=Barberino-Tavarnelle&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari (I believe) a family member nee Fontodi has a small bio/dynamic operation. Very old school.
N: Roses, Cherries, red fruits, dirt, green herbs, pepper…. Nice!
P: Quite umami, red fruits, slight licorice, dirt again, nimble at 13.5° Good blind choice. Shame I only bought 2.
Thanks @Garagiste

Fonterutoli Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2009

Tasty, but I would like it more if it didn’t have Cabernet Sauvignon in it and if they used less oak. Pretty rich and ripe. I prefer Felsina, Fontodi, Monsanto, Castell’in Villa, Rampolla, Isole e Olena and San Giusto a Rentennano to this! — 7 years ago
