Tenuta Campogiovanni is situated on the southern slope of Montalcino – —an aspect that gives the Sangiovese warmth, earlier ripening and a natural approachability that cooler sites do not offer. San Felice developed this site in the second half of the 1990s: six hectares of Sangiovese, planted specifically for the Rosso di Montalcino DOC, on medium-heavy silty-sandy soils over sandstone and calcareous marl, facing south to south-east at an altitude of 250 to 300 metres. 2024 began with a mild, dry winter and a spring with regular rainfall, which ensured good flowering. The very hot summer – — particularly August – slowed down ripening; the harvest did not begin until the second week of September. Autumn rain necessitated careful selection in the vineyard. The result: elegant aromas, well-integrated tannins, moderate alcohol and balanced acidity. A vintage characterised by freshness and early drinkability.

Bright ruby red. On the nose, cherry, blackberry and cedar wood – — inviting and fresh. On the palate, medium-bodied, crisp and lively, with a silky texture and a long, elegant final. Montalcino at its most approachable and freshest. SUPERIORE.DE

"Spicy, with aromas of graphite, raspberries and plums; quite mature in style. Light-bodied, with velvety tannins, crisp acidity and a slightly tart finish." James Suckling
