Natalie's Score: 90/100

A solid, structured Chianti Classico produced from mostly Sangiovese wine grapes. Earthy, savoury and bright with dark cherry, berry, violets and savoury herb flavours on the palate finishing with dusty tannins and great acidity for food. Pair with a meat-lover's pizza.

Chianti Classico food pairings: bucatini with sausage and peas, roast beef, cheesy pizza, stuffed roasted turkey.

Reviews and Ratings

From the Tuscany wine region, San Felice 2017 is a great value, medium-bodied Chianti Classico under $20. Savoury, vibrancy and spicy with earthy, dark berry, cherry and spicy toasty oak flavours on the palate. Pair with your favourite pasta and tomato sauce dish. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
