Flaccianello is the top wine of the brilliant Tuscan producer, Fontodi. Fast becoming an iconic wine, Flaccianello is a broad-shouldered and intense expression of Sangiovese, showing its best after 5 years of cellaring. Aged for 24 months in French oak, full-bodied with dense black cherry, mocha, liquorice, lavender, spice and tobacco. A true powerhouse of a wine.

At a Glance

The Manetti family has owned Fontodi since 1968 whilst Giovanni Manetti has run the property since 1980. His eye for detail and meticulous approach raised the quality level at Fontodi and is now recognised as an iconic name in Tuscany. The 90 hectares of vineyards, 90% being Sangiovese, are situated in the Golden Shell or ‘Conca d’Oro, a prime position within Panzano, within the Chianti Classico region. The area is known and renowned for its quality viticulture, specifically the high altitude, marly soils and high diurnal temperature range.  The vineyards are now certified organic and Biodynamic principles are followed to ensure the finest quality grapes. Flaccianello della Pieve is the top wine of the estate year on year. Whilst, after some decanting these can be enjoyed fairly young, cellaring is highly recommended for 5 to 10+ years. 98 points Wine Advocate “The 2019 Flaccianello della Pieve is another stunning wine that sums up the character of the vintage and reflects the sun-drenched beauty of its quintessentially Tuscan surroundings. Giovanni Manetti and his team have two new important wines in the works, but Flaccianello remains an old love and a wine that hits the highest marks for quality consistency vintage after vintage offers rich concentration and layers of dark fruit that wrap thickly over the senses.
