Supple yet vibrant, the 2021 Fontodi Chianti Classico layers ripe cherry and blackberry with hints of violet, warm spice and a subtle mocha note, all framed by polished tannins. Its extra density in this vintage is lifted by lively acidity, giving the wine both immediate appeal and impressive poise through the long, stony finish.

Fontodi’s Chianti Classico is a pure, organically grown Sangiovese from the high-altitude Conca d’Oro amphitheatre in Panzano, crafted as the estate’s benchmark expression of its celebrated terroir. Fermented with native yeasts and aged around 18 months in French oak, it marries vivid cherry and blackberry fruit with violets, Tuscan herbs and a mineral spine, delivering a supple yet structured wine that captures both the generosity and classic tension of Chianti Classico.
