Hailing from the heart of Tuscany in Italy, San Felice Chianti Classico Riserva 'Il Grigio' 2022 is a masterful expression of the region's historic terroir. The San Felice estate, steeped in a rich winemaking history dating back centuries, balances traditional Tuscan heritage with modern innovation to craft exceptional estate grown wines. Their philosophy centers on elevating indigenous grape varieties while strictly respecting the nuances of their calcareous Galestro and Alberese limestone soils.
Wine Description
This 100% Sangiovese displays a deep ruby red color in the glass. The nose opens with an intense, rich bouquet redolent of violets and wild red berry fruits, beautifully interlaced with complex undertones of black plums, eucalyptus leaves, and a touch of dark chocolate. On the palate, it is full-bodied, lean, and firm, delivering an austere yet highly harmonious balance between succulent, mature tannins and a tangy, vibrant acidity. Linear tension and a graceful structure guide the wine into a long, savoury finish marked by notes of cherry, mahogany, and a subtle hint of salt.
Food Pairing
This classic Tuscan red is an excellent match for rich, meat-sauced first courses, roast pigeon, or a premium grilled steak. The wine's strict tannin axis and refreshing acidity cut right through the richness of hearty, grilled red meats and aged cheeses.
