"Giovanni Manetti and Fontodi represent the pinnacle of quality that can be achieved in this part of Tuscany. That he has become a symbolic head of the region only brings more prestige and pedigree to an appellation that demands our highest respect and admiration." - Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate, Issue 239
"Fontodi produce wines that are true to the region with a delicious Chianti Classico DOCG and the seriously impressive Vigna del Sorbo Gran Selezione Chianti Classico and Flaccianello della Pieve Colli Toscana Centrale IGT." - Gourmet Traveller Aug/Sep 2018
"Fontodi is located in the heart of Chianti Classico precisely in the valley which lies south of the town of Panzano and is called the “Conca d’Oro” (the golden shell) because of its amphitheatre shape. A genuine and characteristc “Terroir”, famous for centuries for its tradition of quality wine cultivation, thanks to a unique combination of high altitude, calcar clayschist soil, lots of light, and a fantastic micro-climate – warm and dry with a marked difference in day and night-time temperatures." - World Wine Estates
