ITALY
Fontanella REd
Umbria
85% Sangiovese, 15% Merlot
Sourced from vines 8-15 years old, the grapes are hand-picked in late September and early October, before fermentation in steel. The wine rests for 5 months in bottle, after vinification.
A generous display in the glass, with present, rounded tannins in harmony with juicy cherry and red plum notes. Light touches of spice on the finish are lifted by gentle acidity.
