    92 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Showing a luminous and crystalline shine, the 2021 Chardonnay I Sistri is packed with citrusy flavors that cede to unripe peach, crisp pear and crushed stone. This is a classic expression of Chardonnay with lots of pretty fruit intensity. You also recognize it as a wine from Tuscany thanks to its soft, sun-kissed texture and those characteristic salty mineral notes. Drink: 2023-2027. (May 2023)"

    92 points James Suckling: "Notes of waxed lemons and baked apples with toffee, almonds and praline on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied, creamy and sleek with delicious stone fruit and a polished finish. Drink or hold. (7/25/23)"

    The history of Fèlsina Chardonnay begins with grafts from French clones on the nearby estate of Farnetella, owned by the winery. New vineyards have been planted at Felsina in the area that rises from the Ombrone river up to the Poggiolo farm where soils are looser than in the Chianti Classico appellation, using a variety of clones and rootstocks that carry forward the research begun decades ago. First vintage 1987.
