Felsina Fontalloro IGT 1998

Varietal
100% Sangiovese, Fontalloro is the most representative expression of Fèlsina’s Sangiovese, since the grapes are grown in vineyards straddling the borders between the Chianti Classico and Chianti Colli Senesi appellations.

Vineyard profile
100% Sangiovese, Fontalloro is a complete expression of Fèlsina’s Sangiovese: the grapes come from vineyards straddling the borders between the Chianti Classico and Chianti Colli Senesi appellations. The vineyards found within the Chianti Classico appellation are in the elevated area of Fèlsina and those of the Chianti Colli Senesi in the lowlands (330-407 meters above sea level). With a southwestern exposure, the grapes are influenced by diverse soil compositions: on the Chianti Classico side the soil is stony and calcareous; on the Crete Senesi side the soil is sandy, loamy and silty with pebbles and marine sediments.
First vintage 1983.

Characteristics
Ruby red color with rich and intense tones. Variety of aromatic herbs accentuated with generous notes of tobacco and wet earth (dry earth, as well), black currant and licorice. The palate manifests good consistency of medium-smooth tannins to ensure the lengthy ageing. Good weight and structure, with a classic finish. Optimum cellar life for the great vintages.

Vinification
Destemming and pressing of select grapes. Fermentation temperature 28-30°c. Maceration 16-20 days. Racking and pumping scheduled daily. Devatting after the maceration period. Malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Transfer to first or second use, 225-liter oak barrels in March-April for 18-22 months. Blended in steel tanks, then bottle-aged 8-12 months.
