Tuscany, ItalySan Felice works only with native varieties, and in this case, it's mostly sangiovese with small amounts of colorino and pugnitello. The local varieties toe the lighter, fresher red fruit styling of classic Chianti, where elegance is prized above all. Post ferment, the wine spends one year in large older Slavonian oak casks. Look for a firm, youthful mix of red cherries and cranberries with a forest floor and earth brush. A wine constructed for food such as a mushroom or Tuscan pizza.Tasted: 02 April 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Tuscany, ItalyThis CC blends 80% sangiovese, 10% colorino, 10% pugnitello from Castelnuovo Beradenga, in the very south of the appellation. These vines grow in stony clay albarese soils at 350-430m. After fermentation in stainless, this rests in large Slavonian casks for one year. Tight cherry, red currant, strawberries fill the slender palate, with tart cranberry acidity and pinched, slight tannins guiding this to a snappy, tomato leaf finish.Tasted: 08 April 2021Tasted by: Prices:
