Castello di Fonterutoli Concerto 2021 0,75l

Concerto di Fonterutoli from Castello di Fonterutoli is a Tuscan red in the Supertuscan vein, combining Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes come from selected vineyards around Fonterutoli and are vinified separately before ageing in French oak barrels. The bouquet reveals ripe cherry, dark berries, spice, undergrowth and a hint of graphite. On the palate Concerto is juicy and full-bodied yet precise, with dense fruit, fine-grained tannins and lively acidity. The finish is long, powerful and still elegant. It is a characterful wine that pairs beautifully with braised meats, game, lamb and mature hard cheeses.

Ageing for 18 months in French oak barrelss, partly new, gives the Concerto structure, depth and spicy accents.

Castello di Fonterutoli

Across the rolling ridges of Chianti Classico in Tuscany (Toscana), Castello di Fonterutoli has been shaped by the Mazzei family since the 15th century. Vineyards are split into dozens of parcels and elevations, from sunlit slopes to cooler ridgelines; alberese limestone and galestro shale sharpen aromatics and keep Sangiovese taut, with a savory, herbal edge....
