Fontalpino, a remarkable company, in organic management, arrives at full completion with this 100% Sangiovese aged in tonneau. Nose with notes of cherry, hints of white pepper, then laurel and touches of rhubarb. The mouthfeel is brackish with hints of red fruit and spicy nuances

We are in the southern part of Castelnuovo Berardenga and here the Chianti Classicos are soft, full-bodied, enveloping but not heavy. Very Sienese | 100% Sangiovese. Tonneau for 12 months. Very intense and lively ruby. Enveloping fruity, ethereal, spicy, with notes of blackberry, dark cherry and light vanilla. Full, warm flavour, with dense tannins supporting a good weight body.

Det er længe siden, jeg har fået en så lækker chianti classico. Strutter af solmodne kirsebær, lidt lakrids og propolis. Indtagende og rustik chianti, der er struktureret i munden med flot koncentration, tørret frugt og en fin blød garvesyrefinish. Et vanvittigt godt køb. Høj genkøbsfaktor. 93 Spottet hos Supervin til ca. 160 kr. "

Very pretty Chianti Classico with orange blossom, cherry and mineral aromas that follow through to a medium to full body with firm tannins and a fresh finish. Linear and energetic. From organically grown grapes.

Mad og Monopolet

Man kan næsten høre italiensk musik i baggrunden, når en flaske som denne skænkes - det er nemlig Sangiovese all the way. Den skønne drue, som i sin rette form indkapsler italiensk vin. Skøn duft af hindbær, ribs, tranebær, lyse blommer og et skønt hint af vanilje. I munden har den en skøn friskhed over sig, som Sangiovese ofte kan have, og som liver vinen op og giver den masser af energi sammen med skønne tanniner og en lækker delikat frugtsødme. 1 stk 199,95 / BEDSTE PRIS v/6 fl. 119,95

Indelibly stamped Carpineta style while so very fresh for 2021, truly bright of great breaths of Castelnuovo Berardenga air. Aged in tonneaux after cement fermentation and to say this was judged with fine precision would be paying close attention to Gioia Cresti’s acumen and always consistent deft touch. Spot on for 2021 in so many respects. Last tasted October 2023.

Coming from the southeastern region of Castelnuova Berrardenga and pouring a nearly opaque red hue, the 2021 Chianti Classico Fontalpino is lush and inviting with a saturated perfume of black cherry liqueur, sunny Mediterranean herbs, mossy earth, and mocha. Full-bodied with ripe, silky tannins, it retains good freshness while retaining a rounded profile and has a savory finish with notes of tea leaf. It’s a very attractive and ripe wine with lots of complexity and depth that’s going to do well over the coming 8-10 years.

The organic 2021 Chianti Classico Fontalpino is 100% Sangiovese that starts off in neutral cement and stainless steel and finishes in tonneaux for 12 months of aging. Fruit is sourced from across three sites, totaling 20 hectares of vines, with sandy and loamy limestone-based soils in warm Castelnuovo Berardenga. This is a terrific value bottle with dark cherry and fruit that is amply framed by earthy sensations and a hint of toasted nut. This release of 40,000 bottles will hit the market in winter 2023.

Flaskehalsen

Her har vi en Chianti Classico, der rammer et rigtig godt sted for os, der elsker Sangiovese-druens robuste, tørre stil – men som gerne vil have den ledsaget af noget, der gør det hele lidt mere smooth og blidt. For det er lige præcis, hvad Fontalpino kan med denne vin, der kommer fra den sydligste del af Chianti Classico, hvor vinene har ry for at være dybe og robuste. Det kommer hurtigt til udtryk i denne vin, der har en insisterende balance mellem det tørre Sangiovese-præg og det mere frugtige og saftige. Selvom det smager lidt som Sangiovese med et skvæt af en anden druesort, så er det rendyrket Sangiovese, der bare har lidt mere bund og muskler. Normalpris kr. 199,95, Set til kr. 119,95 | Supervin

Det solbagte toscansk landskab på flaske – mørk frugt, lakrids og tobak svøbt i varm vanilje og krydderurter. Her møder du en Sangiovese med rygrad og temperament: tannisk, urtet og præget af syre, der strammer grebet og trækker eftersmagen ud. Den er ikke poleret, men rank og vild – en vin der kræver modspil og trives i selskab med tomat, kød og kraft.

Wine Spectator

A pretty red, evoking rose, cherry, strawberry and subtle herb aromas and flavors. Though elegant, this is firmly structured, with a hint of black pepper on the finish.

The nose is frank and reminiscent of yellow fruit such as pineapple, late mandarin and cantaloupe melon. In the secondary profile, yellow flowers like broom, but also daisies. On the palate, medium body, soft tannins and an essential, pleasantly drinkable finish.
