Vernaccia di San Gimignano Riserva Fontaleoni 2010

The Reserve by Fontaleoni is another great way to honor the Vernaccia di San Gimignano, another great way to honor the memory of Franco Troiani, the founder and the architect of the growth of Fontaleoni, a reality that has emerged in the history of this designation through wines always of the highest level. Born in the beautiful setting of San Gimignano, one of the most beautiful towns in Italy, where time seems to stand still.

Here the vines are protected and cooled by woods and olive groves lie on steep slopes. Manual harvest, soft pressing and fermentation in stainless steel with 90% resting on the lees and the remaining 10% that rests for 6 months in small wood. Intense, complex, fine, delicate, with a nice persistence. Its aroma is very delicate and fine and provides us with pleasant floral notes accompanied by alternations of mint and walnut, with a final citrus and slightly peaty.
