2023 Fèlsina Chianti Colli Senesi
Tasting Notes
Light ruby with garnet glints. The nose presents sour cherry, cranberry, and a touch of dried herbs. On the palate, it is vibrant and sleek, offering red berry fruit, light spice, and gentle tannins. A refreshing, linear finish makes it approachable and ideal for casual enjoyment.
About Fèlsina
Fèlsina is a historic estate in the southeastern corner of Chianti Classico, Tuscany. Since its acquisition by the Poggiali family in 1966, Fèlsina has become renowned for its dedication to Sangiovese, producing wines that are both expressive and true to their terroir. The estate's vineyards span diverse soils, from the stony, calcareous terrains of Chianti Classico to the sandy, loamy soils of the Colli Senesi, allowing for a range of nuanced expressions. Aging takes place in a combination of Slavonian oak casks and French oak barriques, contributing to the wines' complexity and aging potential.
