Energy and refinement drive the 2021 Fontodi Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Terrazze San Leolino, with vivid red and dark cherry, blood orange, and blackcurrant layered over hints of iron, tobacco leaf, and subtle sweet spice. The high-altitude freshness and classical 2021 structure give it tensile, chalk-dusted tannins and a long, precise finish that feels both sun-warmed and beautifully poised. This is a serious, terroir-marked Chianti Classico that already thrills but clearly has more to reveal with time in bottle.
Bistecca alla Fiorentina; Pappardelle al cinghiale (wild boar ragu); Aged Pecorino Toscano
