Fèlsina. A name reaching back to Etruscan times. A feeling that infuses the air, in harmony with the quality of the light, with the earth’s scent and the fragrance of the breezes, with the march of the seasons and night time silences.

Fèlsina’s roots will be found in that period, when a profound spirituality impregnated those locales, both the city and the country, which Ambrogio Lorenzetti deliberately brought together into one unitary world.
We view the past of those places in light and shadow, as is but fit, but with clear-limned ideals. These same ideals we wish to animate our work.

Fèlsina, an ancient presence in the land of Siena, has become a modern wine estate while fully respecting the local agricultural traditions that held sway in the Chianti area for so long, right up to the 1950s, or just before the breakup of the mezzadria, the sharecropping system.
The traditional subdivision of a large estate into poderi, or small farm holdings, and the ancient practice of horizontal hillside cultivation using terraces lend themselves quite well to the new, fairly modest-sized specialised vineyards
