Country / Region: Italy/Tuscany

Grape type: Sangiovese

Unusually, this Sangiovese is fermented and macerated for nine months in terracotta amphoras, which Giovanni Manetti finds extremely interesting for winemaking.
Lovely ruby colour in the glass with purple hues. On the nose, balsamic herbal aromas, as well as classic cherry, blackberry and tobacco notes. On the palate, the wine is incredibly complex with pronounced flavours of balsamic herbs, sweet tobacco and hints of cherry. The finish is long and persistent.

Product Description

The Manetti family has owned Fontodi since 1968 but has been in Chianti for centuries. Though they have always made wine, their primary business is still the production of Chianti's finest terracotta at their factory in Ferrone. Giovanni Manetti has run the property since 1980 and ensures the wines are as meticulously made as the vineyards are immaculately tended. Their 99 hectares of vineyard, 95% of which are Sangiovese, are situated in the prime 'Conca d'Oro' (golden shell) of Panzano, and have been converted to organic viticulture. Giovanni is now following biodynamic principles to obtain the best quality fruit.

Product Reviews

Critics Review

Wine Enthusiast 93 Points
Made entirely with Sangiovese and vinified and aged in clay amphora, this intriguing red has continuously evolving aromas that include scorched earth, truffle, leather and baked plum. Full bodied and enveloping, the warm, structured palate delivers prune, dried black cherry, ground pepper and a mineral note alongside tightly knit, velvety tannins. You'll also detect the warmth of alcohol on the midpalate and the finish.
