Castellina’s vineyard heart meets Gaiole’s timeless terroir.
Nestled in the heart of Gaiole in Chianti, the organic vineyards of San Vincenti rise among olive groves and forested hills, where ancient stone terraces and cool mountain breezes shape wines of pure Tuscan character. Their Chianti Classico captures the soul of this historic land, made predominantly from Sangiovese grown on rocky galestro soils that lend depth, minerality, and refined structure.
In the glass, it reveals a brilliant ruby-red hue, releasing aromas of ripe cherries, wild berries, violets, and subtle hints of spice and dried herbs. On the palate, it is elegant and well-balanced: juicy red fruit, lively acidity, and fine, polished tannins lead to a long, savoury finish. Each sip tells a story of the land — of sunlit slopes, cool nights, and generations of craftsmanship.
Perfect with roast meats, rich pasta dishes, or aged cheeses, San Vincenti Chianti Classico brings the warmth and authenticity of Tuscany to Irish tables. It’s a wine that feels both timeless and modern, reflecting the beauty and balance of its origins.
Why we love it:
We love San Vincenti Chianti Classico for its honest expression of Tuscany — vibrant fruit, floral lift, and earthy elegance all wrapped in Sangiovese’s classic charm. It’s a wine that feels effortlessly Italian yet beautifully suited to Irish dining, whether enjoyed with a simple bowl of pasta or a hearty Sunday roast.
