2003 Felsina Beradenga Fontalloro Melchior 18 ltr
2003 Felsina Beradenga Fontalloro Melchior 18 ltr

From a single vineyard plot that straddles the chianti classico boundary.This super tuscan has been produced since 1983.The average age of the vines is now over 50 years. "The 2003 ( 100% Sangiovese ) is perhaps slightly weightier and fresher than the Rancia. Made in a more flashy and opulent style, it exhibits a primary quality to its super-ripe red fruit, with notable intensity on the palate and plenty of grip on the finish. It will benefit from several years of cellaring to integrate its new oak. Fontalloro is made from a combination of vineyards located in both Chianti Classico and Colli Sensi appellations. The presence of sand in the latter terroir gives Fontalloro its more open personality. Anticapated maturity 2009-2015." R.Parker
