CASTELLO DI BROLIO 2016 SANGIOVESE 97%, ABRUSCO 3% CHIANTI CLASSICO DOCG GRAN SELEZIONE VINEYARD Castello di Brolio is created from a meticulous selection of the best Sangiovese and Abrusco grapes from the estate’s vineyards, spread over 240 hectares of land. The production of each vintage may thus vary in quantity, but quality is always outstanding. The vineyards are at 400 to 500 meters above sea level, facing south/south-west. The perfect exposure and excellent elevation of the land as well as the very stony soil are responsible for the typicality of this wine. SOIL Castello di Brolio is our flagship wine created from a meticulous selection of estate-grown grapes from the five most representative soils in Brolio: Macigno del Chianti (sandstone), Scaglia Toscana or Argillite di Brolio (Galestro), Monte Morello (calcarenite or Alberese), Pliocene marine sediments and the ancient fluvial terrace. GROWING SEASON The autumn and winter were very mild this year, with below-freezing temperatures only in part of January. It was rainy, about 440 mm. In the spring, temperatures were average, with the end of May and early June hot but humid. This diminished the fruit set causing a thinning effect in the clusters that was good for the Sangiovese. Two hailstorms at the end of May also led to loss of flowers, thus reducing per-plant growth. Summer was hot and dry. End-July and Mid-August rains gave some relief to the plants, helping them during the period of veraison. Harvest began in early September, with temperatures mid-to-high for that period of the year during the day and a drop of as much as 10-15°C at nights, favoring the accumulation of phenolic compounds. HARVEST Sangiovese was harvested from mid-September to mid-October and Abrusco grapes were picked on early October. WINEMAKING Fermentation and maceration in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 24°-27°C (75.2°-80.6°F) with 14-16 days of skin contact. AGEING 18 months in tonneaus (30% new). BOTTLING 14/12/2018 – 1/02/2019 ANALYTICAL PARAMETERS Alcohol: 14,23 PH: 3,34 Total Polyphenols (in Gallic acid): 2455 Total acidity: 5,53 g/l Non-Reducing Extract: 28,92 g/l.

San Felice Il Grigio Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2014 ISF003 AGRICOLA SAN FELICE TOSCANA, ITALY 13.5% | 6 x 75cl | Cork Sangiovese 80% A seriously complex, generous style of Chianti Classico produced from San Felice's oldest vines and best plots of Sangiovese (80%), with a mix of other native varieties from their experimental vitiarium, including Pugnitello, Abrusco and Malvasia Nera. San Felice Il Grigio Gran Selezione Chianti Classico 2014 ISF003 AGRICOLA SAN FELICE TOSCANA, ITALY PRODUCTION The Sangiovese grapes were sourced from the Colti, Chiesamonti and Pianaccio vineyards. The additional indigenous grapes (Abrusco, Pugnitello, Malvasia Nera, Ciliegiolo and Mazzese) were sourced from the Montebello, Civettino, Le Rose, La Cappella and Camponovo vineyards. Average altitide of 400m. After harvesting in the second week of October, each grape variety was fermented separately in stainless steel, followed by a 22-day maceration at 28-30 degrees C. After malolactic fermentation the wine was matured for 24 months - half in large 60-100hl Slavonian oak ovals and half in 225-500l French oak barriques. The wine was then held in bottle for a further 8 months before release. TASTING NOTE Ripe, opulent and spicy nose with complex aromas of violets, cassis, tobacco and liquorice. Full- bodied and richly flavoured - concentrated ripe plum and dried black fruit characters are enhanced by fine tannins, beautifully balanced acidity and well-integrated spicy oak. Will improve with cellaring of 5-10 years. FOOD MATCH Roast and / or grilled meats - or a bit of game if you're that way inclined. Either way it deserves to partner something truly tasty! AWARDS 2013 Vintage Sommelier Wine Awards 2017 GOLD NOTES.

SAN FELICE is located in the commune of Castelnuovo Berardenga, a few kilometres from Siena, in the heart of Chianti Classico, and it is owned by Allianz since the late ‘70s. Surrounding the tiny medieval hamlet and the winery complex are 140 hectares of vineyard, planted 80% to sangiovese, a testimony to the commit- ment of San Felice to the production of Chianti Classico with a manifest bond to its local terroir, as shown by its ‘Il Grigio’ and ‘Poggio Rosso’ wines. But at the same time, San Felice has won recognition as a very innova- tive producer and committed researcher. Eloquent ex- amples are its historic wine Vigorello, the precursor to the Supertuscan wines, and Pugnitello, made from the ancient Tuscan grape of the same name, which San Felice re-discovered and experimented with over many San Felice 2013 years, in collaboration with the University of Florence. Chianti Classico In 1982, San Felice purchased the wine estate of CAMPOGIOVANNI in Montalcino, comprised of 20 hectares on the southern slope of that wine zone, and began producing Brunello.

John Hanna Invitatio
JH&S John Hanna & Sons Ltd. When he came to San Felice in '68, Enzo Morganti brought with him the wealth of his experience with the Sangiovese grape, and began to renovate both the vineyard and the cellars. In 1968 VIGORELLO was born (about 5,000 bottles were produced, little more than an experimental quantity!). This to him was to be Sangiovese's answer to those who preferred it combined with white grape varieties, which after all, was the norm according to the rules of Chianti winemaking at the time. This confidence in the strong personality of Sangiovese, above all at a time when the name Chianti - even though it was well-known all over the world - was slow in making its mark, due to considerable differences in the quality of its production, was a precursor of the times. After a few years, other firms developed this concept of pure Sangiovese, and combined it with another vine - one that at the time was rather rare on Chianti hillsides - but which would strongly influence the development and fame of Tuscan wines in the future: Cabernet Sauvignon. Moreover, in 1974 other Sangiovese vine cuttings grafted on American rootstock from the massive selection created at the time by Morganti were planted in the estate of Poggio Rosso (considered one of the most suitable terrains in the farmland of San Felice, both for the composition of the soil structure and its exposure). The initial plantation of roughly 3 hectares was gradually enlarged to become more than 8 hectares in the early '80s, which is the actual area for the present production.

Ranking: the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Il Grigio 2011Named the Best Wine in the World
San Felice wine tops "The Enthusiast 100 of 2015" ranking: the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Il Grigio 2011named the Best Wine in the World Milan / Siena, December 2015 - A prestigious international recognition was given to Italian wine maker of excellence Agricola San Felice SpA, owned by Allianz Italy, headed by CEO Klaus-Peter Roehler. "Wine Enthusiast”, an American widespread magazine addressing a wide audience of wine lovers, proclaimed the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Il Grigio 2011 to be the Best Wine in the World of 2015. In the "Wine Enthusiast 100" international ranking, published in the December issue, the famous American magazine took into account over 19,000 labels by the best wine-makers around the world. Kerin O'Keefe, wine taster and editor for Italy, motivating the 95/100 score and the 1st position in the ranking achieved by San Felice's Il Grigio Gran Selezione, wrote: “A fantastic combination of power and finesse, this opens with aromas of under brush, ripe plum, truffle, leather, smoke and a balsamic note. The firm, delicious palate delivers freshly black cherry, crushed raspberry, cinnamon and mocha. Velvety tannins support the juicy flavors”. San Felice’s Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Il Grigio was merchandised in 2014 (year 2010), out of a careful selection of the best Sangiovese grapes from five areas of excellence in the Allianz owned agricultural estate, combined with a 20% represented by five outstanding native varieties, rescued in San Felice’s Vitiarium: Abrusco, Pugnitello, Malvasia Nera, Ciliegiolo and Mazzese. The Chianti Classic Gran Selezione is the type of wine placed by the Chianti Classico Consortium at the top of the qualitative pyramid for the Chianti Classico denomination.
