This comes from the southern part of Castelnuovo Berardenga, a warmer part of Chianti Classico, and estate vineyards that high in limestone content). With San Felice's classical winemaking, this all leads to a slightly darker tone in the wines relative to other areas of Chianti, and it's driven by Sangiovese's savory aromas of clay earth, balsam, and Mediterranean herbs, along with fruit notes like Amarena cherry & blackberry. It has a firm structure of earthy, crisp tannins and juicy, lifting acidity, making this a fantastic wine for a variety of Italian-inspired dishes!

The palate brings cherries and more berries, but dusty, chewy tannins and notable acid emphasize that flinty earthiness, which continues to anchor the wine." - Danielle Callegari, WINE ENTHUSIAST
