Producer Notes

Felsina, for all of its current, well-deserved respect and fame, is the product of an ancient and humanitarian history. In the 12th century this estate was a roadside hospital directed by Benedictine monks who tended to the pilgrims and merchants traveling the Strata de Rancia.

Ruby color. Ripe cherries and a little oak on the nose. On the palate wonderful cherries and soft ripe fruit, oak, plums, leather, dried herbs, a little dust and soft tannins. Terrific!

Drank the Felsina Rancia, then the 1999 Caprili, and the Felsina - Fontalloro. The Rancia was mellow and yummie. The Caprili was close but slightly tighter/younger. The Fontalloro tasted dramatically different and I always wonder if it was bad. This Rancia was clearly the winner.
