Giovanni Manetti, who is head of his family’s Fontodi estate, talks about their top vineyard, Flaccianello.
Giovanni Manetti di Fontidi e il Territorio di Panzano in Chianti
???????? I vini mito non nascono a caso... ci vogliono sempre grandi personaggi dietro! Come nel caso del Flaccianello e di Giovanni Manetti. Insieme a lui ripercorriamo brevemente la storia del Chianti Classico e i suoi confini, la differenza con la più ampia zona del Chianti e l’origine del nome Gallo nero, così come la nascita dei Super Tuscan. Preziosa la sua testimonianza in nome della cantina Fontodi che rappresenta un punto di riferimento dell’eccellenza del distretto biologico di Panzano, una delle aree di maggior spicco di tutto il Chianti Classico grazie anche alla sua rinomata Conca d’oro che regala vini stupefacenti che saranno in degustazione il prossimo weekend a Vino al Vino, un evento da non perdere!!

Chianti Classico Media Trip: Panzano in Chianti, w/ Fontodi & Dario Cecchini - #ChantiClass12
In May of 2012, I had the great fortune to visit the Chianti Classico DOCG region of Tuscany, Italy. I attended courtesy of the Consorzio Vino Chianti Classico, as organized by Balzac Communications. We spent a week in that glorious, ancient and hilly wine region. Our stay was timed partially to attend the grand festival Chianti Classico è, as well as to taste our way through many a balanced, vibrant Chianti Classico wine paired with its local cuisine.
In this video, I have collected a few different clips that are all centered around the tiny village of Panzano in Chianti. Here we see top-down and bottom-up pans of the local area's Golden Shell, considered the most beautiful winegrowing region in all of the greater Chianti DOCG. We visit the small cattle ranch on the estate of Giovanni Manchetti, Azienda Agricola Fontodi. He introduces us to a few of his stoic Chianina Oxen. Finally, we end up at Officina della Bisteca, the upstairs restaurant of the world-famous butcher Dario Cecchini, which is situated above his Antica Macelleria Cecchini. Dario is seen introducing our tremendous 8 course beef meal, sourced primarily from Giovanni's Fontodi ranch.

Debra Meiburg MW Meets the Winemaker 175: Giovanni Manetti, Fontodi
Debra meets with Giovanni Manetti of Fontodi, a winery located in Panzano, the heart of the Chianti Classico zone. Manetti describes all the wines from Panzano are very rich, well structured, and expresses great finesse due the concave shape of the vineyard and warm days, cool nights. Manetti tells Debra the key to growing better quality grapes and manage healthy vines. Finally, he introduces the differences in identifying wines from Chianti Classico and Barolo.
Fontodi for Wine Picker
Fontodi has belonged to the Manetti family since 1968. The family has been associated for centuries with another activity typical of the Chianti region, the production of its famous “terrecotte” tiles. And it is in the name of this strong link with the territory and a great passion for quality that the estate has moved successfully towards an ever more attentive cultivation of the vineyards and a more profound knowledge of the potential of Sangiovese in the zone of Panzano.
Karen Brown's Fagiolari in Panzano in Chianti a wonderful B&B in Tuscany
We would like to share with you one of our recommended B&Bs in Italy, Fagiolari in the town of Panzano in Chianti -- in Tuscany. We look all over for bed and breakfasts that radiate a natural charm like that of Fagiolari, just outside Panzano.
Cordial hostess Giulietta has seemingly unintentionally created a haven for travelers just by letting her home be a home.
The unique stone farmhouse on three levels is brimming with character and has been restored with total respect for its innate simplicity using stone, terracotta brick, and chestnut-wood beams.
Entering the front door into the cozy living room with large fireplace, we were impressed by the refreshingly authentic ambiance of this Tuscan home.
Two bedrooms are just off this room, the larger having an en suite bathroom of stone and travertine.
The main house and former barn, where you find two other good-sized bedrooms, are united by a connecting roof, left open in the middle to allow for an enormous fig tree.
Bedrooms hold lovely antiques, book-lined shelves, collections of framed drawings and artwork, embroidered linens, and views of the delightful garden and cypress-lined paths.
Overlooking the swimming pool, an adorable one-bedroom house on the property with a bookcase dividing the kitchen and living area is rented out weekly.
Giulietta also teaches cooking classes lasting from one to four days.
Travel your dreams with Karen Brown!
