2020 Fontodi, Flaccianello delle Pieve, Colli della Toscana Centrale IGT 1x75cl

CRITIC REVIEWS

Antonio Galloni

The 2020 Flaccianello della Pieve is a blend of Fontodi's vineyards, mostly three main vineyards planted on sites with very dense, heavy rocks. Dark, pliant and inviting, the 2020 is so expressive today. Black cherry, plum, spice, lavender, licorice and mocha are seamless in the glass. The 2020 is a fine Flaccianello with a bright future. Most of this blend is sourced from three parcels in upper hillside vineyards close to town center. The 2020 spent a year and a half in barrique (40% new) and six months in cask.

100% Sangiovese. Deep crimson. Much less exuberant than the 2021 vintage. Subdued yet deep nose of cherry and raspberry aligned with savoury oak notes, but really subtly done. A core of cherry fruit with lots of juicy acidity and gravelly tannins that play up a little on the finish. Long and gripping. (WS)
