The Manetti family has owned the Fontodi winery since 1968, testifying to a great affection for the Chianti area already as a historical producer of the famous local terracotta for centuries. This link with the places and its historical traditions has generated an ever-growing knowledge of the vineyards and the art of making Sangiovese. The estate extends to Panzano in Chianti for 170 hectares of which 80 are vineyards, where agriculture is successfully practiced in which not only is the use of chemicals prohibited, but all the resources offered by the land are optimized by increasing at most the sustainability regime.<\/p>\n
The Chianti Classico Fontodi was born in the vineyards of the so-called Chianti Golden Basin in the south of the small town of Panzano, where the high altitude, the composition of the soil and the perfect microclimate contribute to the natural excellence of the wine. The vinification takes place according to spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and subsequent maceration in stainless steel tanks for two weeks, to then refine the wine in Allier and Troncais barriques for at least 18 months and another 6 months in bottle. A wine with a strong personality worthy of such a rich and complex terroir renowned for centuries.<\/p>\n
