San Felice - Chianti Classico Il Grigio Riserva 2018 (5L)
San Felice Description
Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG
Here is a proud, noble wine, taciturn but decisive, precisely as we imagine Il Grigio, the grey-bearded medieval knight dramatically presented in local stories, and perfectly suggested by Titian in the portrait utilised on the wine’s label.
Produced from carefully-selected sangiovese grapes, Il Grigio represents the iconic elegance of the traditional Chianti Classico, exhibiting the steely temperament, the dynamism, and the ability to surprise typical of the adventurous, all qualities eminently characteristic of the noble variety that yields Il Grigio.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Black cherries with summer black truffles and dark wood on the nose. A medium-to full-bodied red with medium, round tannins and lovely fruit. It firm and flavorful. Drink now, but can age nicely.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
This expressive red delivers cherry, strawberry, iron, earth and rosemary flavors, embedded in a rich texture. There's adequate structure and this lingers on the finish. Drink now through 2028. 21,700 cases made, 5,000 cases imported. — BS
