The 2007 Pugnitello, from an ancient variety that the estate has worked to restore, possesses striking vibrancy and freshness in its dark cherries, violets, minerals and flowers, all wrapped into a soft, textured frame of notable length. Hints of tobacco, smoke and new leather emerge over time, adding to the wine’s sensual, inviting personality, leading to the beautifully expressive, radiant finish. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2022. What a joy it is to taste these new releases from San Felice. Quite simply, these are the finest wines I have tasted from the estate in many a year. San Felice is one of the most beautiful properties in all of Tuscany. It’s nice to see quality on the rise. Importer: Premium Brands, Forest Hills, NY; tel. (718) 263-4094
