Giovanni Manetti's 2010s will one day be regarded as some of his greatest wines. From top to bottom, the Fontodi 2010s are superb. In particular, over the last few years I have been increasingly impressed with the Chianti Classico Riserva Vigna del Sorbo, which will be the subject of an upcoming feature covering every vintage back to the inaugural 1985. In the meantime, readers may want to take a look at this short video shot just after that tasting, or some of my thoughts on the 2010s, also on video. Fontodi fans may be aware that the Manetti family's original business was tile, so it is somewhat ironic that Giovanni Manetti is experimenting with terra cotta amphora, which his family manufactured up until the early 1920s. The 2012 Fontodi Sangiovese in amphora is....special.
