Fontodi Description
Located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region in Tuscany, Italy, Fontodi is a renowned wine producer known for its exceptional Super Tuscan wine, Flaccianello delle Pieve, which embodies a full-bodied varietal Sangiovese. The estate lies in the southern part of Panzano within the valley referred to as the Conca d’Oro, benefiting from a warm and dry microclimate with significant diurnal temperature variations that ensure optimal grape maturation while preserving acidity levels. The 70-hectare (173-acre) vineyard features a combination of chalk, clay, and schist soils.
Fontodi upholds organic and biodynamic farming practices, emphasizing sustainability and the preservation of the region’s natural ecosystem. The winery ferments its red wines in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, utilizing conical wooden vats for Pinot Nero. The wines are aged in French oak from the Tronçais and Allier forests, predominantly in 225-liter barriques. In addition to Flaccianello della Pieve, their portfolio comprises the Chianti Classico Riserva wine Vigna del Sorbo, alongside a range of varietal wines like Syrah, Pinot Nero (Pinot Noir), and Sauvignon Blanc, all showcasing the exceptional quality and unique character of the Chianti Classico terroir.
