Felsina Fontalloro Toscana 2016 750mL

Ruby red color with rich and intense tones. Variety of aromatic herbs accentuated with generous notes of tobacco and wet earth (dry earth, as well), black currant and licorice. The palate manifests good consistency of medium-smooth tannins to ensure the lengthy ageing. Rich structure and weight and elegant breed on the finish. Optimum cellar life in all vintages.

96 Points - WinesCritic.com, Raffaele Vecchione, December 2019. "Sinuous on the nose with notes of black plums, asphalt, licorice and many Indian spices. The sensorial bouquet is truly complex and ranges across different profiles, demonstrating the uniqueness of this wine. Full body, round and juicy tannins and a balanced and biting finish. Great desire to return to the glass here. It starts slowly and as time passes in the glass it gives the best of itself. Best from 2020 to 2024."

96 Points - Falstaff, February 2019. "Bright ruby with a light garnet rim. Opens with rich notes of cherry and pomegranate, against an earthy backdrop of cinnamon sticks and cloves. Blossoms beautifully on the palate, with ripe cherry fruit, grippy tannins, a soft, sweet core, and firm drive on the finish."

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast, Kerin O'Keefe, April 2019. "Aromas of dark-skinned fruit, exotic spice, blue flower and menthol shape the nose. It's linear, focused and ethereally elegant, offering succulent Morello cherry, raspberry compote and star anise alongside fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity lends balance. Drink 2020–2028."
