The 2016 Fontodi Flaccianello della Pieve is a benchmark, single-vineyard 100% Sangiovese from the Conca d`Oro in Panzano, rendered in the age-worthy magnum format. The outstanding 2016 vintage contributes immense concentration to this wine, yielding a full-bodied, enveloping palate of mature Marasca cherry, prune, liquorice and tobacco. It is distinguished by layers of intricately wrought, fine-grained tannins and a pulse of fresh acidity, creating a kaleidoscope of flavour that demands significant cellaring time to fully integrate its complex structure.

The 2006 Flaccianello della Pieve is monumental, as it has been since the very beginning. Smoke, black cherries, plums, incense, licorice and tar are some of the many notes that burst from the glass in this powerful wine. The 2006 has fruit and structure to burn. It is going to be an absolutely fabulous wine to follow over the coming years, but patience is key. A huge, explosive finish rounds things out in style. Antonio Galloni1st June 2012
