It is known particularly for its Super Tuscan wine, Flaccianello delle Pieve, a full-bodied varietal Sangiovese. The estate is located in the heart of the Classico zone, south of Panzano, in the valley known as the Conca d'Oro, (or golden shell) due to its sun-catching amphitheatre shape. The microclaimte here is warm and dry with a large diurnal temperature variation to ensure that the grapes reach full maturity without compromising the acidity level. The soils of the 70 hectare (173 acre) vineyard are a combination of chalk, clay and schist. The Flaccianello della Pieve wine comes from a selection of the best plots of Sangiovese, but other varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are also cultivated. Fontodi ferments all of its red wines in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, except for the Pinot Nero which uses conical wooden vats. French oak from the Troncais and Allier forests is used for aging, the top wines in 225 litre barriques.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-03T10:42:56-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-28T09:15:55-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","other_italian wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Fontodi","Region_Tuscany","RK2812","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Sauvignon Blanc"],"price":9999,"price_min":9999,"price_max":9999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42650651951242,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2019 | Fontodi | Meriggio Sauvignon Blanc","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":9999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/09_8bcb0ca9-005b-4c52-a3af-8b9fce610770.png?v=1672237032"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/09_8bcb0ca9-005b-4c52-a3af-8b9fce610770.png?v=1672237032","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2019 | Fontodi | Meriggio Sauvignon Blanc at CaskCartel.com","id":23860065140874,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.425,"height":623,"width":265,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/09_8bcb0ca9-005b-4c52-a3af-8b9fce610770.png?v=1672237032"},"aspect_ratio":0.425,"height":623,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/09_8bcb0ca9-005b-4c52-a3af-8b9fce610770.png?v=1672237032","width":265}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2019 | Fontodi | Meriggio Sauvignon Blanc\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePale lemon in colour with youthful hints.
