FEATURES

The 2005 Fontodi Flaccianello della Pieve emerges from a challenging Tuscan vintage characterized by a wet winter, cool spring, and an unnervingly hot and dry summer with intense heat spikes. Despite these difficulties, this 100% Sangiovese IGT is lauded as an impressive and elegant effort, showcasing superb clarity and depth. Fontodi is a certified organic estate, and Flaccianello della Pieve is renowned for its wonderful aging potential. 【Pure Sangiovese from a certified organic estate, known for its aging potential and elegance even in challenging vintages.】 This wine displays a crimson red color with bright glints. The nose offers striking inner perfume and sweetness, with notes of dark cherry, moss, tobacco leaf, mocha, menthol, and swirling smokiness, underpinned by pure, bright cherry fruit. On the palate, it is elegant and structured, with very crisp acidity, finely grained tannins, and raciness, featuring red fruit of raspberry and cherry, leading to a long, fresh finish with earthy, iron ore, and loam characteristics. Given its age, the 2005 Flaccianello della Pieve is likely at its peak or slightly past, with an anticipated maturity of 2012-2025. To fully appreciate its complexity and to separate any potential sediment, decanting for 1-2 hours is highly recommended. Handle the bottle gently to avoid disturbing the sediment, and ensure careful cork extraction. Food pairing suggestions include beef, lamb, veal, poultry, and cured meats. This sophisticated wine is an excellent choice for special occasions, fine dining experiences, or a serious wine tasting. Its structure and proven aging ability make it a thoughtful gift for a wine connoisseur or a centerpiece for celebratory dinners.
