Lavacchio Fontegalli igt Toscana 2016 MG
This "Super Tuscan" has a velvety texture and supple tannins, with notes of spice, leather and chocolate with a hint of blackberry and blackcurrant.
Fontegalli is the name of the well from which we extract our water. Like water, source of life and element of absolute quality, this wine represents our quest for purity and quality without compromise or limits. The result is a wine of great elegance and intensity that is able to fascinate even the finest palates.
The color is of great intensity with violet shades. The nose is abundant, intense and persistent with notes of blackberry and blueberry. The palate is rich and complex with fantastic length and concentrated fruit notes of blackberry and blueberry, vanilla and oak. The finish is long and persistent. This wine is particularly suitable for aging and can be enjoyed at all stages of aging.
But it never feels too heavy or overdone, thanks in part to the cool climate and steep forested mountains that surround the Pontassieve area of Tuscany. These environmental conditions evoke a wild and untamed character that is proudly on display here
Fattoria Lavacchio is among the first estates in the Rufina area to cultivate organic and biodynamic agriculture. Hard work and investment has started to pay off and this boutique property has shown impressive quality improvements over the years. The winery was recently renovated and customers can enjoy the offer of an on-site restaurant and charming agriturismo. This is definitely a winery to see and worth visiting in person.
