Description
Fontalloro IGT Toscana Magnum 2019 by Fèlsina
Fontalloro IGT Toscana Magnum 2019 is one of the most recognizable expressions of Fèlsina, an authoritative interpretation of pure Sangiovese born to accurately convey the character of the inner Tuscany. The magnum version in wooden case enhances an important wine, designed for special occasions and to evolve with balance over time.
Territory and wine style
The grapes come from vineyards located between Chianti Classico and Chianti Colli Senesi, in a hilly area situated between 330 and 407 meters above sea level. The combination of predominantly southwest exposure and different soils contributes to giving the wine depth and personality: rocky, calcareous, and clay components coexist with richer soils of sand, silt, small pebbles, and marine sediments. The result is a Tuscan wine of strong identity, elegant yet incisive, with a structure that combines substance and finesse.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense and rich ruby red color with nuances. The aromatic profile is complex and refined, with hints of tobacco, wet earth, soil dust, black currant, blackberry, and licorice. On the palate, it shows good consistency, present but moderately soft tannins, and a solid texture, supported by balance and character. The finish is long, with a sensation of breed and depth that makes the wine particularly suitable for favorable aging in the best vintages.
Recommended pairings
Fontalloro IGT Toscana Magnum 2019 pairs effectively with structured and flavorful dishes of Italian cuisine. It is ideal with Florentine steak, braised dishes, roasted red meats, oven-roasted lamb, game, and pappardelle with wild boar ragù. Its personality also expresses well with aged cheeses and rich preparations where the succulent component finds freshness and tannic support in the Sangiovese.
Serving temperature
Serve Fontalloro IGT Toscana Magnum 2019 at a temperature between 16 and 18 °C. If opened young, it can benefit from a bit of oxygenation in the glass or a brief decanting, useful to open the bouquet and make the sip more harmonious.
Why buy it
It is an ideal choice for those looking for an important wine from Tuscany, capable of combining prestige, depth, and versatility at the table. The magnum version in wooden case enhances the product also as a gift idea or for a cellar to build over time. Fontalloro IGT Toscana Magnum 2019 best represents Fèlsina's signature: an intense, territorial, and long-lived Sangiovese, perfect for those wishing to buy wine online with an authoritative and satisfying profile.
