“Casa Boschino” Rosso Toscana IGT 2019 (BIO)
The fresh, supple and very drinkable Casa Boschino is made from a similar blend of grapes as the Cerviolo, the star of the San Fabiano house. However, its grapes come from younger vineyards, so that it can be had for a sensationally low price. Very beautiful aromas of ripe blackberries, blackcurrants and Indian-like spices, full-bodied and with fine tannins. SUPERIORE.DE
"Aromas of blackberries, dark plums, mushrooms, tar and stones. It's medium-to full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Structured and tannic with a stony finish." James Suckling

Chianti Classico DOCG 2019 (BIO)
Intense ruby red. Harmonious interplay of fruit, barrel and spice aromas in the bouquet, hearty and engaging taste, reminiscent of dark fruits, violets and spices. In the final, we can expect a lot of warmth and elegance despite all seriousness. As always with the fully certified organic winery: top value. SUPERIORE.DE
"Shiny, intense ruby with a slight garnet shimmer. Opens with slightly earthy notes, of red beet, then ripe cherry. Juicy and fresh on the palate, spreads out with fine-meshed tannin." Falstaff
"Garlic and pepper damsons, sour chery with a leafy note on the nose. Youthful and enjoyable on the palate, firm tannins." Decanter
"Red fruit, mushroom and smoked bacon on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with tight, chewy tannins. Lively acidity with structure and juicy character on the palate. Tight and savory." James Suckling

San Fabiano Calcinaia was acquired in 1983 by the current owner Guido Serio in Cellole near Castellina in the heart of the Chianti Classico area and developed into a winery according to modern standards. The origins of the farm date back to the eleventh century, when it was still part of a medieval hamlet. In the place of the estate there used to be a monastery where pilgrims stopped on their way to Rome. The vineyards, the winery, the bottling plant and the barrique cellar were gradually renovated by the owners. The result is not only an exemplary winery, but also a sensational architecture in which functional aspects are combined with artistic sensory stimuli. Guido and his wife Isa are happy when guests in San Fabiano Calcinaia or in Borgo di Cellole, the country house in Castellina, want to spend some days in tastefully furnished apartments and taste local specialties in the Osteria.
From the outset, however, the owners focused on the production of quality wines. The positive effects of the renewal on the quality standard of their own products were not long in coming. The wines of San Fabiano Calcinaia set out loud Gambero Rosso "on a clearly articulated and concentrated fruit". The Tuscan estate has long been producing world-famous plants. Guido can count on the expertise of the consultant Carlo Ferrini and the oenologist Franco Campanelli for his work. Both wine experts attach great importance to well-balanced wines. The balance is achieved, among other things, by an in-house method of barrel maturation.
The estate also produces IGT wines such as Cerviolo, a little Vin Santo del Chianti Classico and Grappa, as well as the two DOCG classics - a vintage wine made from Sangiovese, Chianti Classico and Chianti Classico Cellole Riserva. For the Riserva, the grapes thrive at a remarkable 450 metres above sea level. There the roots of the vines are in loamy soils with a high mineral content. The wines of San Fabiano Calcinaia mature on a total area of 42 hectares in vineyards established around the estate and the village of Cellole. SUPERIORE.DE
