Medium garnet color, pretty nose of violets and sage. Rich and a touch tannic. Lots of black fruit, balanced by good acidity. I’d hold off on this one until 2025 at the earliest.

Clear medium red. Very nice approachable nose, spicy cherry fruit, forest floor, red berry, spice and balsamic. Dry fresh cherry and spice flavours and a dry long finish.
So good at this point, nice weight and should improve. For me when it comes to Fontalloro it’s never too early or too late.

tasted @Vancouver International Wine Festival 2023: Another highlight tonight. Forest strawberries and red cherries here, great acidity, great tannin quality, very elegant and refreshing, well-balanced wine and quite long on the finish. This is a very pretty wine. - 92 points

Liked at the WS Grand Event 2023. Wow. Tasting the same wine just weeks later (after the Slow Wine Event). This time I liked it much more. No excessive acidity. Showing that beguiling green CabFranc note (none in there) that I often find from these wines.

sangiovese 100% 와인. 미디움 바디, 중간 탄닌에 적당한 산도. 끼끌과 비슷한 팔렛. 가격대비 별로. 재구매의사 없음.
