40 years after the acquisition of the Campogiovanni estate in Montalcino, San Felice 's interest has shifted to another area of Tuscan wine excellence: Bolgheri. Faithful to its philosophy of producing exclusively wines from proprietary grapes, 6 hectares of vineyards have been identified in Le Sondraie. The vines have an average age of 5 years and are planted on a silt-sandy soil typical of the area. The varieties are mainly Cabernet Sauvignon (2 ha) and Merlot (4 ha). Two wines are produced: Bolgheri and Bolgheri Superiore.

VINTAGE CHARACTERISTICS 2018 began with an early bud break due to temperatures higher than the seasonal average in the months of March and April, followed by a fairly rainy May. From June the temperatures started to rise again in the summer temperatures in the norm with scattered rains. The month of September in particular saw a succession of sunny days but with a large temperature range between day and night, which allowed the grapes to achieve correct phenolic and aromatic ripening.
