Product Highlights
A typical example of a pure sangiovese, red with purple reflections, with interesting aromas of plum, cherry and currant. It's persistent, pleasing and versatile with great balance and finish. Pair with salami, cold cuts and Pecorino cheese.

Expert Reviews
The
Fattoria Carpineta Fontalpino 2018 Chianti Classico Fontalpino (made with
organic fruit) is a special wine with a hint of raspberry or candied orange
peel that is specific to this bottle from Castelnuovo Berardenga. This is one
of the most Pinot Noir-oriented Sangiovese wines I have tasted from this
slightly warmer Chianti Classico subregion. The wine is delicate, polished
and perfect for a pork loin roast with onions and potatoes. Nice job. — 91 PointsWine Advocate, April 15, 2021 |
