San Felice Chianti Classico Gran Selezione La Pieve 2022

San Felice Chianti Classico Gran Selezione La Pieve 2022 is a refined expression of Sangiovese from the heart of Tuscany, crafted to highlight both elegance and depth. Coming from San Felice’s historic hillside vineyards, this is a wine that captures the character of Chianti Classico at its most polished and age-worthy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-red color that already hints at its concentration and structure. The nose is expressive and persistent, with notes of sweet violets and blackcurrant layered over warm accents of tobacco, licorice, and delicate spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied, supple, and beautifully structured, with ripe, juicy tannins and a freshness that keeps everything in balance. The finish is long and harmonious, and the wine has the capacity to evolve gracefully over the next several years, gaining complexity with time.

Production
San Felice’s vineyards cover around 150 hectares at roughly 400 meters above sea level, where the combination of soil composition and microclimate creates ideal conditions for premium Sangiovese. The grapes are carefully managed by Leonardo Bellaccini and his technical team, who pay close attention to the individuality of each hillside plot. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, followed by 22 days of maceration at 28–30°C, then malolactic fermentation and 24 months of aging in wood.

Food & Serving
This is a natural match for rich Tuscan cuisine such as bistecca alla fiorentina, roast lamb, game, braised beef, and mature hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and decanting for about 1 hour is recommended to allow the aromas and texture to fully open.
