Fontella Chianti Classico 75cl - Italian Red Wine

A straight Sangiovese made by Casa Girelli from grapes sourced from well-situated land throughout the Chianti Classico zone. Half of the wine was aged in Slovenian oak Botte for 15 months. 

Deep red in colour and warm tones. Aromas of spice and ripe fruit emphasising its strong personality Smooth, medium-bodied palate, with an attractive lingering finish.

Fresh, round and graceful, but very balanced on the palate, with strong aromas of cherry and blackberry.

Traditional fermentation is carried out at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks, followed by breakage and soaking of the bunches through manual pressing and pump-overs with air; then spontaneous malolactic fermentation takes place. 50% of the wine is aged in large oak barrels for a few months.
