Chianti Classico 2011

“Fonterutoli's 2011 Chianti Classico is drop-dead gorgeous. The wine's trademark richness is in the glass, but at the same time I see a level of polish that hasn't always been present. Cinnamon, cloves, plums and dark raspberries all come together in a soft, seamless wine graced with impeccable balance. All the elements are in the right place.”

Antonio Galloni, August 2013
