Flaccianello della Pieve 2021 Magnum Fontodi 150 cl

Fontodi has been owned by the Manetti family since 1968, which instead comes entrepreneurially from the famous terracotta sector. The decision to also invest in wine and specifically in the Chianti Classico of Panzano derives precisely from this strong link with the Tuscan territory and from the desire to enhance the quality production of the region’s excellence, especially Sangiovese. The company is certified organic and covers 170 hectares of land of which just over 80 are planted with vineyards. All the agriculture practiced adheres to principles of respect for the vineyard, the environment and nature and sustainability is the watchword in Fontodi: we try not only to avoid in the most categorical way the use of chemical products harmful to the health of the environment, but rather to use as much material as possible from the company itself. For example, the vineyards are fertilized using a compost of pruning residues and manure that comes from the internal breeding of Chianinas. The cellar is very modern and develops vertically in order to exploit the force of gravity for carrying out the various stages of vinification which allows to maintain a greater integrity of the fruits and to obtain “healthier”, fragrant and intense wines.
