Tasting Notes: The San Felice Brunello Il Quercione 2006 is a powerful and brooding red wine, offering a concentrated nose of dark fruits like blackberry and prune, complemented by complex savory notes of tanned leather, cedar, and tobacco. On the palate, this full-bodied Riserva presents a rich, velvety texture and deep flavors that mirror the aromas, with a core of dark fruit beautifully integrated with baking spices and earthy undertones. With firm but polished tannins and a long, elegant finish, this wine is a contemplative Brunello that benefits from decanting to fully reveal its layered character.
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.
