Felsina Chianti Classico Berardenga 2021
Chianti Classico is the company's production base. The vineyards are located in Castelnuovo Berardenga, in the South-Eastern part of the Chianti Classico production zone, North-East of Siena. The vineyards face almost exclusively South-West and are situated on windy slopes at an altitude ranging from 320 to 420 metres above sea level. From a geological point of view, the soils are rather heterogeneous: in the higher parts, quartzose sandstone and alberese mixed with alluvial pill predominate; stratiform sandstone and silt characterize the vineyards on the border with the Colli Senesi in the direction of the Crete Senesi. First year of production 1967.

Ageing The wine is then blended and bottled, where it remains for at least 3 months before release.
