Flaccianello Della Pieve 2011 is a fine Tuscan wine produced by Fontodi. It is a Super Tuscan made from carefully selected 100% Sangiovese grapes, and is minimally treated both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Fermentation occurs spontaneously, while aging takes place in Allier barriques, which enhances the harmony and preserves the grapes' primary characteristics. Fontodi's Flaccianello is a renowned wine from the heart of Chianti and is now recognized nationally and internationally for its class and its deeply rooted terroir.
