Description
Nectarine and white pepper with a saline finish!
Fonterenza is an old farmhouse in the small village of Colle in Montalcino, which takes its name from a spring that flows from the hill under the house. It is now owned by twin sisters Margherita and Francesca Padovani, whose family bought the estate in 1975. The sisters are originally from Milan, but spent much of their youth here and fell in love with it.
Vinification: Vines are harvested by hand and undergo fermentation with indigenous yeast and a 30 day maceration with the skins. The wine is then left to mature in a combination of acacia barriques, amphora and stainless steel before bottling.
Match it with: Mushroom risotto or smoked white fish.
