Tasting Notes: The San Felice Chardonnay Toscana Ancherona comes from a special vineyard selection of Chardonnay grapes and amply demonstrates that an area traditonally known for its outstanding reds can also produce superb whites. The Chardonnay brings to the wine structure and complexity, while a small addition of Sauvignon Blanc ensures freshness and a firm acidity. Nine months in small French oak barrels confers a delicious, but muted, nuance of toasty oak.
Estate History: San Felice spans three stunning areas of Toscana: Chianti Classico, Montalcino and Bolgheri. With an estate in each territory, the taste of Toscana's terroir is on full display in their wines. In the 1980s, they dug deep into indigenous grape varieties of the region and created the Vitiarium, an experimental vineyard where they grow over 270 varieties of native grapes in an effort to protect Toscana's biodiversity. After years of study, they have been able to collect and classify the grapes that make up Tuscan viticulture heritage, and even blend them with the more well-known Sangiovese for complex and unique wines.
