If there is an exceptional location to gaze out over all of Fèlsina and its surrounding areas, that place is the vineyard on the ancient Rancia estate. A single vineyard cru first made in 1983, Rancia is renowned for its structure and acidity. This 6 hectare vineyard, planted entirely to Sangiovese, is at 400 metres above sea level and the soil is a type is a combination of alberese and galestro. Aged mostly in barrique for between 12-18 months, Rancia balances ripe fruit with a racy freshness that supports spice, smoke, game and mineral notes on a hugely structured palate layered with complexity and character.
