The Fontodi Chianti Classico DOCG Filetta di Lamole 2022 is an organically produced red wine that beautifully reflects the unique character of the high-altitude vineyards of Lamole. Located at around 600 metres above sea level, these terraced sites provide ideal conditions for Sangiovese to ripen slowly and develop remarkable elegance. The grapes come from several vineyards covering approximately eight hectares and are fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. Maceration takes place for at least three weeks in cement tanks, followed by a minimum of 18 months of ageing in French oak barriques and large casks. This traditional winemaking approach gives the wine depth, finesse and a strong sense of place.
In the glass, it displays a bright ruby-red colour. The bouquet offers aromas of ripe cherries and red berries, complemented by elegant notes of violet, tobacco and delicate hints of spice. On the palate, it impresses with a refined structure, silky tannins and lively freshness. Its pronounced minerality and long, harmonious finish give this Chianti Classico exceptional elegance and distinctive character.
