The 2020 Chiarti Classico Berardenga is a classic Fèlsina wine. It can be enjoyed now or cellared for 10–15 years. Classic Fèlsina savory, floral and tobacco accents play off a core of sweet Sangiovese fruit. This heady, strapping wine has a ton to offer. Time in the glass brings out gorgeous aromatic presence. (Antonio Galloni)

A charming, harmonious Chianti Classico, this exudes cherry, plum and thyme flavors, with elements of earth and mineral. Delivers dense tannins that exert influence on the finish, yet this remains balanced. Drink now through 2028. 22,000 cases made, 15,000 cases imported. (Bruce Sanderson)

A pure and open wine out of the gate, the 2020 Chianti Classico Berardenga is fresh with aromas of pine sap, anise, and cherry lozenge. Medium bodied with fine tannin and a modest but refreshing finish, this is a fantastic entry point for the Felsina range, for casual drinking with braised meats or Bolognese. Drink 2023–2028. (Audrey Frick)

Sangiovese is one of Italy's two most important grape varietals, Nebbiolo being the other. This Tuscan grape is the main grape used in Chianti. Wine enthusiasts will also recognize Sangiovese as the primary grape in the stellar Brunello de Montalcino wines of Italy. Today Sangiovese is blended with Cabernet Sauvignon to create "Super Tuscan" wines, which have great depth, concentration, and age-ability. The Sangiovese grape can act to smooth and lighten the intense tannins of the Cabernet.

Enjoy Sangiovese wine with Osso Buco, Braciole, Veal, and even seared fish served over a Tuscan white bean and escarole stew!
