Decanter Magazine Review
Rated 96
San Leolino is a five-hectare terraced vineyard between 450 and 500 metres with a southeast to southwest exposition. A small portion of the vines are 50 years old, while the remaining were planted 20 years ago with a regional clone and a selection from Fontodi's Flaccianello site. With an intense focus on floral and mineral aspects, this is a compelling synthesis of lavender, dried rose, sunbaked stone and iron, sinewy rather than brawny in muscles, but formidable nonetheless. Concentrated, crunchy dark fruit is stitched with emphatically chalky tannins, framed by stylish wood notes. Vertical and direct. Drinking Window 2026-2040.
Wine Tasting Notes
Luminous ruby red. Scents of cherry, raspberry, and sweet violets. Dry on the palate, showing subtle tannins and a fresh, crisp acidity.
Food Pairing
Fontodi Terraze San Leolino Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Panzone DOCG is at its best when partnered with antipasti, full-flavored first courses, and most red meats.
Alcohol 13%
