How to serve it
Tasting notes
Deep ruby. Violet, wild berries, cherry and sandalwood on the nose. The palate combines elegance, structure and minerality, with rounded tannins and a juicy, persistent finish. Powerful yet refined, with fine-grained structure and remarkable length; it will keep improving in the cellar for many years.
About this wine
The Mazzei family has been making wine in Tuscany since 1435. Castello Fonterutoli is their flagship, made from the best plots around the village of Fonterutoli in Castellina in Chianti, and has been produced since 1995, making it a pioneer of the Gran Selezione category.
It is 100% Sangiovese, drawn from six clones and eight massal selections of the estate, grown on limestone soils at 470 metres in the Castellina UGA.
The wine ages 18 months in 500-litre French casks, half of them new, then four months in concrete. It can age for more than 20 years.
