In 1968 the Manetti family bought the Fontodi estate, switching from over three centuries of terracotta production to making top quality wines. Since they bought the property, they have acquired new sites, and modernised the winery. Tasting Note: This ripe rich wine has aromas of leather, red cherries, and spice. On the palate it is medium bodied and shows a great deal of elegance. This wine is drinking well at the moment, but will be superb in a couple of years. Food Pairing: Pasta, Lamb, Game
