Fontodi Meriggio 2018 750ml
Fontodi Meriggio 2018 750ml
Price: $36.99

Fontodi claims that the ’18 Meriggio Bianco is the most complex and freshest that it’s ever seen, and we have to agree--this wine is fascinating! Juicy yet finessed, ripe yet steely, intense yet focused, the ’18 Meriggio has a lot to give white wine lovers, layering its succulent stone and crisp orchard fruits with crushed river rocks, fresh herbs, white wildflowers and a dusting of peppery spices. Weighty yet nimble, this wine whooshes across the palate, propelled by its twin engines of savory minerality and keen acidity, as it builds to a resonant, complex and refreshing finish. Enjoyable upon release, this sophisticated white will drink beautifully over the medium term. Deriving from Fontodi’s organically tended, north-facing La Rota vineyard, this wine is mostly old-vine Sauvignon Blanc blended with about 10% Trebbiano; grapes ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel, and the wine ages on the lees for six months, mostly in stainless steel, with a small percentage in amphora. Only 300 cases will be imported to the USA. more info

Fontodi Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna del Sorbo Gran Selezione 2014 750ml 750ml
Fontodi Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna del Sorbo Gran Selezione 2014 750ml 750ml
Price: $89.99

Sophisticated, polished and graceful, the ’14 Vigna del Sorbo crackles with energy. Vibrant red berries dance on a backdrop of crushed river rocks, violet petals, baking spices, sun-warmed earth and pressed herbs in this wonderfully balanced wine. While some Vigna del Sorbo vintages are big reds, the 2014 is taut, muscular and very much alive; it whooshes across the palate, leaves chewy tannins and saline minerals in its wake, and crescendos in a fine, lingering finish. This mono-varietal Sangiovese derives from fifty-year-old vines grown on the estate’s southwest-facing Vigna del Sorbo plot; the grapes ferment for three weeks with natural yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, and the wine ages for about 28 months in botti grande (about four months longer than is customary) before bottling. more info

Fontodi Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna Del Sorbo 2016 750ml
Price: $119.00

One of the greatest Vigna del Sorbo releases to date, the 2016 frames its luscious red and blue fruits with seductive notes of forest floor, truffles, fresh loam, new leather, and kisses of blood orange, pressed herbs, cedar wood, and flower petals. Super-fresh acidity, elegant minerality, and Sangiovese’s telltale dusty tannins underpin the wine’s glorious dry extract as this Fontodi beauty glides to a lingering, nuanced, and delicious finish. This mono-varietal Sangiovese derives from vines that are almost 60 years of age, grown on the estate’s southwest-facing Vigna del Sorbo plot; the grapes ferment with natural yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for about a month, and the wine ages for a total of 28 months, the first few months in barrique (45% new) and the remainder in botti grande. more info

Sumptuous red cherries and brambly black fruits layer with cigar wrapper, warm loam, licorice, violet petals, exotic spices and sun-warmed rocks in the epic, blockbuster ’15 Vigna del Sorbo.

Fontodi knocked it out of the park with its ’15 Vigna del Sorbo; enjoyable now with liberal decanting, this wine will drink for years and years to come. This mono-varietal Sangiovese derives from vines that are upwards of 40 years of age, grown on the estate’s southwest-facing Vigna del Sorbo plot; the grapes ferment with natural yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for about a month, and the wine ages for about 30 months in botti grande (about four months longer than is customary) before bottling. more info
