Wine Critic Reviews
The 2021 Chianti Classico Filetta di Lamole is fabulous. In fact, it is the best edition of this wine yet, as it marries all the aromatic intensity and energy of Lamole with an extra kick of fruit and mid-palate pliancy. Dark red cherry, plum, spice, rose petal, crushed rocks and herbs build into the layered finish. What a wine.

Giovanni Manetti’s seven-hectare slice of Lamole has been in his extended family for years. He was instrumental in replanting the decades-old vineyards 20 to 25 years ago, and left just a few old vines pushing a century. While the 2021 exhibits the fine, elegant frame of this high-altitude subzone, it packs a bit more substance than previous editions. A panoply of savoury herbs, juniper and heather surge from the glass. The palate exhibits lovely clarity and energetic acidity, gently wrapped in long, flowy, confident tannins. And through the dark red cherry core, lightness and brightness radiate.

The organic Fontodi 2021 Chianti Classico Filetta di Lamole offers punchy, lifted fruit with almost carbonic-like tones of fresh cherry and raspberry. For those of you interested in cool-climate, high-elevation Lamole fruit that tends to be more transparent and fresher overall, this wine underlines that contemporary style.
