Chianti Classico with character that tells
the soul of San Felice. Sangiovese and Pugnitello
meet to give life to a fragrant
and energetic wine, a faithful and authentic expression of
a unique territory.
Characteristics Vintage
During the 2022 season, no extreme
weather events occurred, offering favorable conditions for the
development of the vine. The high summer temperatures were mitigated
by the rains of mid-August which contributed to
an optimal ripening process of the grapes.
The Sangiovese harvest began slightly
early, around September 10, and ended
regularly after about a month.
Tasting Notes and Pairings
Versatile and immediate, it retains freshness, fruity aromas and
floral notes. Rich and complex, with sweet tannins that
accompany a persistent and balanced finish.
