Fontalloro 2020 Vintage Overview

2020 OVERVIEW

Depth and finesse define Felsina’s 2020 Fontalloro, a pure Sangiovese layering vivid red and dark cherry fruit with plum, citrus zest, sweet spice and tobacco, all wrapped in refined, tightly knit tannins. The vintage shows a particularly elegant balance of richness and energy, with a long, mineral-tinged finish that promises even more complexity with time in bottle.

About Fontalloro

Fontalloro is Fattoria di Fèlsina’s flagship pure Sangiovese, a historic “Super Tuscan” first produced in 1983 from vineyards straddling the border between Chianti Classico and Chianti Colli Senesi. The wine marries high-altitude, stony, calcareous sites with the sandy, loamy, marine-influenced soils of the Crete Senesi to give a powerful yet finely etched expression of Sangiovese, typically showing dark cherry and currant fruit layered with tobacco, licorice, earthy spice, and a firmly structured, ageworthy palate.
