San Felice Chianti Classico Riserva Il Grigio 2020

San Felice is one of Tuscany’s treasures. It boasts Michelin-starred restaurants, perfect views, and a village with ancient origins. Il Grigio is produced from 100% estate Sangiovese, aged 24-months in oak. The wine walks a wonderful line between traditional and modern, packed with dark berries, leather, and licorice. It is always one of Italy’s great values.

WS93: Bright and fruity, offering cherry, strawberry, rose and Mediterranean scrub flavors. Shows no shortage of structure, remaining balanced and long. Reveals tobacco and mineral elements on the finish. Best from 2025 through 2042. 26,700 cases made, 6,000 cases imported.

WA92: Reverting to a spicy and savory taste profile, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Il Grigio (with an ample 320,000 bottles made) shows a dark, mid-weight texture with extra heft that comes in the form of baked plum, candied cherry and spice. This is another good value wine from one of the most beautiful properties (and luxury hotels) in Italy.
