On the palate, it is dry, full-bodied and structured, characterised by \u003cstrong\u003efine tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e and a pronounced \u003cstrong\u003efruity and mineral imprint\u003c\/strong\u003e. This profile, harmonious and balanced between fruit, wood and tannin, culminates in a long and precise finish, ideal for accompanying game dishes, braised meats, lamb and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from the vineyards of Castelnuovo Berardenga, located within the Fèlsina estate, on the border between Chianti Classico and Chianti Colli Senesi. The rows extend at an altitude between 330 and 407 metres, benefiting from optimal south-west exposure. The vines grow on \u003cstrong\u003evaried soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, rich in stones, sand, silt, clay and marine sediments, and are trained using the \u003cstrong\u003espur-pruned cordon\u003c\/strong\u003e method. This specific geological base, combined with the hillside microclimate, gives the wine its typical complexity and a \u003cstrong\u003esolid structure\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins in the first ten days of October with a rigorous \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, aimed at selecting the best bunches. After destemming, the must ferments in steel at controlled temperatures, with maceration on the skins for 15-20 days supported by daily punching down and pumping over. The wine then matures in \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, both new and first-passage, for a period between 18 and 22 months. After the time in wood, the final blend is created before a prolonged \u003cstrong\u003ebottle ageing\u003c\/strong\u003e, essential to achieve perfect organoleptic balance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1966, the Poggiali family has produced \u003cstrong\u003eFontalloro Fèlsina\u003c\/strong\u003e, a prestigious Sangiovese born in Castelnuovo Berardenga.
