Cultivation takes place following the espalier training method with spurred cordon pruning. The harvest takes place manually in two separate phases, with a careful selection of the best grapes. After pressing and destemming the selected grapes, fermentation begins at temperatures between 28°C and 30°C. The complete maceration process takes place in steel tanks for 16-20 days, with automatic punching down and daily pumping over.
In March-April, the newly formed wine is transferred to new, first-use French oak barriques. After a maturation period of 18-22 months, we proceed with assembly and bottling. The wine continues to refine in glass for at least 8-12 months before being put on sale.
Fontalloro has a ruby red color of good intensity. Its aromatic characteristics are complex, with evident notes of tobacco, wet earth, blackcurrant, blackberry and liquorice. On the palate, the wine reveals good tannins and a medium soft tannin consistency. Its consistency, structure and elegance emerge in the aftertaste, guaranteeing excellent longevity in the most important vintages.
