Fèlsina has long been one of the great names of Tuscany. Fèlsina has been carrying out a consistently excellent activity for over half a century and has become not only a point of reference for wine companies, but also a historical point of reference. In fact, this is a thriving area of ​​quality-oriented companies, which have been producing wine for about 30 years, while Felsina has boasted a dedication to quality wine for over 60 years. Unlike many of their neighbors, Fèlsina has never succumbed to the temptation to produce “new age” wines from their fine Chianti vineyards, and continues to grow solely Sangiovese. 


 The vineyards of Fèlsina are characterized by different soils and microclimates. This is how the wines gain their unique and individual character. The combination of terroir and the grape variety creates an inseparable element of Fèlsina’s past and future-and you can feel it in every glass.
