Tasting Notes
"The 2014 Fontissimo is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 10% Sangiovese, but it comes off first and foremost as a wine off the property. Succulent dark cherry, leather and spice are some of the many notes that come alive with time in the glass. Ample, creamy and beautifully layered, the Fontissimo hits all the right notes. The 2014 offers real substance and plenty of character."

The Producer
Le Fonti
Le Fonti is situated at the base of Lucignano d’Arbia, one of the most enchanting medieval villages in the Sienese region. The landscape is predominantly dedicated to cereal cultivation, with 5 hectares specifically allocated to vineyards. These vineyards are meticulously managed by the two brothers, Francesco and Stefano Chiarion, who approach their work with precision and a deep passion.
The grapes, carefully handpicked at the peak of ripeness, are brought to the winery where they undergo the vinification process under the guidance of oenologist Nicola Berti. The winery produces IGT white and red wines, which visitors can directly experience and purchase at the adjacent store.
