100% Sangiovese from 36 biotypes

18 months in french oak barrels (500 lt)

In Fonterutoli, the quintessence of our research on Sangiovese resides in an experimental vineyard, planted at the end of the 90s in ideal pedoclimatic conditions for Sangiovese: 36 different biotypes of Sangiovese, including 18 massal selections coming from our old vineyards. A cutting edge agronomical project creates a pure-bred Sangiovese, a unique wine that includes “Cru”, “Monovarietal” and “Blend”.

Extremely elegant, fresh, red berries aroma, extraordinarily complex and persistent. Spiced roast meats, stewed game, aged cheeses, mushrooms and truffles
