Another mystery wine I don’t recall buying..glad I did. So hard not to groove on aged Sangiovese from a very good producer. Soft, silken, smooth and remarkably dark and concentrated at age 16. Home-made pasta, meatballs, and sausage and playoff football... doesn’t get much better. The wine displays beautiful classic notes of berry, sun-dried tomato, and some dirt. But marvelous match with the acidity of tomato sauce with pork and basil. Used to always tell buyers to stick to the two “f’s” when it comes to everyday reliable Tuscan red.

PnP. Ready to go. Quite dark in color. Nice Sangiovese bite. Still tart and fairly tannic. Initial attack seems a bit thin, but from the mid palate on this builds in power. Long finish. I prefer the normale CC, CCR and Rancia to this bottling. Earthy.

Excellent. Mature, but will hold for years. Has nice tertiary notes.

Lots of cedar early but that calmed down. Very drinkable on a Saturday afternoon.

Firmly built and in its prime. Tart cherries on a base of darker fruit. Great, earthy tannin. Super good wine

Deep purple red color, slightly tannic with intense red fruit flavor and long lingering finish

Bottle #6 since 2011 and this is the best showing yet for me. Needed 30-40 minutes to fully open, then was terrific.

A big, very young Fontalloro....decanted for 4+ hours and was still fairly one dimensional. Producer and vintage to imagine cellar time will help considerably
