INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

Fontodi is located in the heart of Chianti Classico precisely in the valley which lies south of the town of Panzano and is called the “Conca d’Oro” (the golden shell) because of its amphitheatre shape.

One of the first mono-varietal Sangiovese Super Tuscans, Fontodi's Flaccianello began as a cru of grapes from the vineyard of the same name, the "Flaccianello della Pieve"
