Score 87/100 · Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Apr 2006

It was to be expected that as reliable an estate as Fontodi would offer excellent wines from the 2001 vintage, but the very satisfying quality of the 2002 Chianti Classico is perhaps more surprising considering the reputation of the vintage. Floral, spicy, and soft, the notes of chocolate and licorice on the finish give an additional and welcome complexity. Importer: Vinifera Imports, Ronkonkoma, NY; tel. (631) 467-5907
