Tasting notes
With fruit from a little stretch of vineyard rows up in the cool and forested Lamole area (at 600 meters in elevation), the organic Fontodi 2020 Chianti Classico Filetta di Lamole shows wild raspberry and cherry with background tones of peat moss, almond and fragrant blue flower such as lilac and violet. The wine is lean-bodied and very vibrant in personality. This is the proverbial companion to spaghetti and fresh tomato sauce. Some 20,000 bottles were released.

The 2020 Chianti Classico Filetta di Lamole is elegant, delicate and lifted. Fine-grained tannins wrap around a core of bright raspberry fruit, cedar, tobacco and anise. Medium in body and aromatic, the Filetta di Lamole is a super-classic wine from this site.
About the producer

Based just outside Panzano-in-Chianti, Chianti Classico estate Fontodi was acquired by the Manettis in 1968, a family which has established its modern reputation. Today the leading property is best known for its Flaccianello delle Pieve, the pure Sangiovese Super Tuscan first made in 1981.
