Fontalloro is the most representative expression of Fèlsina’s Sangiovese.

Fontalloro grapes come from vineyards straddling the border between Chianti Classico and the Chianti Colli Senesi denomination. The vineyards lying within the Chianti Classico appellation are in the highest area of Fèlsina while those in the Chianti Colli Senesi are lower down (407-330 meters above sea level). With a southwestern exposure, the grapes are influenced by diverse soil compositions: on the Chianti Classico side the soil is stony and calcareous; on the Crete Senesi side the soil is sandy, loamy and silty with pebbles and marine sediments. First vintage 1983.

Grape Varietal:

100% Sangiovese

Tasting Notes:

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.

95 Points - WinesCritic.com, Raffaele Vecchione, February 2023. "Precise and juicy, it shows notes of red plums, wild strawberries, sage, marjoram, wild thyme, bergamot, lemongrass and lots of bergamot and chinotto. Medium body, elegant fine-grained tannins and a truly linear and pleasant finish. What class!"

95 Points - Falstaff, February 2022. "Bright ruby ​​red. Light earthy notes on the nose, beetroot, after a little time it becomes more floral, dried rose petal, tobacco, raspberry jam. On the palate it has a lovely fruity sweetness and a rich melt, it lies comfortably on the tongue, with clear fruit and a salty undertone, powerful and long."

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast, Kerin O'Keefe, May 2022. "Forest floor, toasted oak and camphor aromas mingle with dark spice on this 100% Sangiovese. Enveloping and elegantly structured, the savory palate delivers ripe black cherry, raspberry compote, mocha and licorice framed in fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Drink 2025–2030."
