Producer notes: "This Chianti Classico by Fontodi comes to life from the Filetta vineyard located 600 meters above sea level in the Lamole are in Tuscany. Pure Sangiovese, it is obtained from organic viticulture. The must ferments in steel with maceration on the skins. The wine is then left to age for 24 months in large French oak barrels. The color is intense and brilliant ruby red. On the nose it expresses aromas of cherry and berries, with references to licorice, tobacco and violet. On the palate it is elegant and sapid with great aromatic complexity, and a fresh and persistent finish. Suitable to accompany stewed meats and roasts, it can be appreciated in combination with aged cheeses."

Not yet reviewed; 2020 vintage rated 93 points by James Suckling: "Fascinating aromas of cherry, cedar, dried flowers and sandalwood follow through to a medium body, with finely chewy tannins and a tensioned and fine finish. From organically grown grapes. A year or two of bottle age more will make it even better, but very pretty already."
