Description

Castello di Fonterutoli Chianti Classico

Castello di Fonterutoli Chianti Classico. A well proportioned, elegant body, dark berry, fresh spice flavors, intense, smooth taste. Great ability to pair: dark sauce pastas, BBQ, boiled meats with spicy sauces, aged cold cuts…

It comes from 120 different company parcels, which spread across a unique range of soil and climate types, at an altitude from 220 to 570 metres above sea level in the heart of the Chianti Classico area. It is the flagship and the “Best Seller” of the company, a benchmark for the whole category.

A long lasting bond unites the Mazzei family with Tuscany and wines since the XI century.

Ser Lapo Mazzei is the author of the first known document to use the “Chianti” denomination in 1398; in 1435, when his granddaughter Madonna Smeralda Mazzei married Piero di Agnolo da Fonterutoli, the holding became part of the family’s estate. Since then, for 24 generations, the Mazzei family produces wine at Castello di Fonterutoli, which even after its recent expansion still remains the beating heart of the company.
