Description

Founder & Editor Winescritic

Raffaele Vecchione

Ripe and concentrated, it plays very well with the reduction that gives complexity. Black plums, blackberries, eucalyptus leaves, mint and chocolate set the main scene. Full body, ripe tannins of important quality and a finish that combines well the horizontal profile with the vertical one. Better from 2022.

Chianti Classico Riserva Il Grigio by San Felice is born in vineyards located in the municipality of Castelnuovo Berardenga (SI).

It is produced exclusively with Sangiovese grapes, harvested in the 2nd week of September, 1st of October. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28-30 °C for 18–20 days. Subsequently, part of the wine is aged in Slavonian oak barrels for about 24 months, followed by further ageing in bottle.

Il Grigio Riserva is characterized by a ruby red colour. The nose opens with an intense bouquet of violet and red berries. On the palate it is full-bodied, austere and very harmonious.

Perfect to accompany grilled red meats and roasts, it is ideal in combination with aged cheeses.
