STORY BEHIND THIS WINE

A legend of Italy and one of Chianti’s leading producers. The Manetti family have been in Tuscany for centuries and have owned the Fontodi property since 1969. Though they have always made wine and the current generation is Giovanni Manetti, who has run the property since 1980. The vineyards are located in Panzano’s amphitheatre-like Conca d’Oro (Golden Shell) which has a reputation of being the best zone in Chianti Classico having perfect exposure and elevation. The proof is in the pudding and the wine is luxurious.
