San Felice Chianti Classico DOCG
Located in the heart of Chianti Classico is San Felice. If you thought Tuscany was already picture-postcard stuff wait until you see San Felice! This estate has over 150,000 hectares of vineyards, 15,000 olive trees, a wine cellar, a wine bar, a medieval village, a flash hotel complex and a Vitiarium.
A Vit-what?! The Vitiarium was built in the 1980s with the aim of protecting the genetic heritage of Tuscan viticulture by collecting and classifying over 270 grape varieties. Wine, tourism, culture and a bit of science – San Felice is quite the place!
Dry on the palate, showing subtle tannins and a fresh, crisp acidity. Scents of cherry, raspberry, and sweetviolets. At its best when partnered with a full flavoured rugu style pasta or roasted red meats.
