Fondirò was born outside the appellations IGP or DOP in order to have the freedom to undertake the making of a red wine extremely modern and unique.

VINE’S SELECTION A selection from vine-stocks characterized by early ripening, in order to obtain an extraordinary polyphenolic maturation that makes the wine remarkably stable and capable to withstand a long aging. It’s also a delicate variety that fears the excess of sunlight, this is the reason why during this experimentation we have defined a rigorous protocol for the correct management of vegetative growth of the plant and foliage.

CULTIVATION ENVIRONMENT A crag of calcareous rocks emerging abruptly from the valley opposite to the winery, a hill with steep sides, surrounded by the clay soils of the bottom. A very special combination, a unique microclimate that thanks to the inclination offers a better protection from the rays of the sun. The synergy between all these elements is what gives origins to the Fondirò Cru.

SENSORY PROFILE On the foreground ripen fruit to the mouth, with very sweet and smooth tannins. A young visual aspect with the violet hoes reminding of the colour of the juice. To the palate the tertiary characters emerge with quite special hints of wood on the finish.

Please note: Upon shipment of wine and spirits are carried ONLY in Italy.
