2012 Felsina Fontalloro IGT, Tuscany

Dark red cherry, plum, cinnamon and crushed rock nuances flesh out in the 2012 Fontalloro. 2012 Fontalloro is floral, perfumed, fresh and vibrant, with gorgeous aromatic lift, silky tannins and lovely overall balance. Fontalloro often opens up before Rancia, as is the case today, but the 2012 also possesses more than enough depth to drink well for a number of years. Still, the sexy, radiant finish makes me think most bottles won't be around to make old bones. Put simply, the 2012 Fontalloro is an arrestingly beautiful, showy wine built to please. And please it does. Drink 2019-2032.
