Note di degustazione
The 2017 Chianti Classico Filetta di Lamole is absolutely gorgeous. In 2017, the Filetta di Lamole has a bit more body than usual because of the warmth of the year, and yet it retains its classic sense of energy and mid-weight structure. Crushed red berry, spice, mint, licorice and rose petal all open up in this super-expressive, inviting Chianti Classico.

The Fontodi 2017 Chianti Classico Filetta di Lamole always stands out in the estate portfolio and as the decisively cool-climate Sangiovese. However, those distinguishing characteristics are less evident in this hot vintage. The wine opens to a medium-dark garnet color and more fruity concentration than we've seen in recent releases. The bouquet reveals brambly fruit, forest floor, pencil shaving and a slightly sharper note of chard or dark olive tapenade. There is a rougher quality to the tannins that could indicate that the fruit was picked according to sugar ripeness, assuming a longer gap to phenolic ripeness in this vintage. I'd suggest giving the wine extra time to open once poured.
Greve in Chianti – Lamole. 100% Sangiovese. Mid ruby. Soft sour-cherry nose with minerally hints. Gripping cherry fruit that is finely balanced. Great length and style. Ready now but will hold. (WS)
Informazioni sul produttore
Situata vicino a Panzano in Chianti, la tenuta Fontodi fu acquisita dalla famiglia Manetti nel 1968, che ne ha accresciuto la fama. Oggi è rinomata per il Flaccianello della Pieve, un Sangiovese Super Tuscan in purezza, prodotto per la prima volta nel 1981.
