October 2025 (Vintage 2023)

A blend of 85% Sangiovese and 15% Pugnitello, the San Felice 2023 Chianti Classico Borgo opens to a medium-dark garnet color and velvety smoothness. There is a point of sweetness here with dried cherry and blackcurrant. That primary fruit is framed by light spice. This warm-vintage wine falls on the sweet side of the spectrum. It is fermented in stainless steel (the two grapes are worked separately), and the wine ages in Slavonian oak casks for 12 months.

July 2025 (Vintage 2023)

A juicy and polished red with aromas of sour cherries, currants, dried herbs and spices. The medium-bodied palate is firm and polished, with a dusty texture and juicy acidity. Flavorful and lightly chewy at the end, with moderate length.
