Pugnitello Toscana IGT 2021 by San Felice is a red wine that reveals a hidden treasure of Tuscany. This ancient vine, rediscovered and enhanced by San Felice, gives a wine of great personality, with intense aromas of red fruit, spices and a touch of Mediterranean scrub.
Pugnitello Toscana IGT is a wine born from San Felice's passion for the rediscovery and valorization of native Tuscan vines. Pugnitello, so called because of the shape of its bunch that resembles a small fist, had almost disappeared, but thanks to a long work of research and experimentation it has returned to life in the vineyards of San Felice. Pugnitello is a niche red grape variety native to Tuscany, which has almost disappeared over time. A real joy for those looking for authentic and unique territorial flavors to discover and savor. This red wine, produced in limited quantities, comes from grapes grown on the Tenuta San Felice estate, in Castelnuovo Berardenga, on soils rich in clay of calcareous-marly origin. The 2021 vintage, with its regular climatic trend, contributed to an optimal ripening of the grapes, enhancing the unique characteristics of this vine.
In the glass, Pugnitello presents itself with an intense and deep ruby red color. On the nose, it is an explosion of aromas: notes of ripe red fruit, such as cherry and blackberry, blend with hints of berry jam, cinnamon, cloves and a touch of Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with soft and velvety tannins and a persistent finish with returns of fruit and spices.
Pairings: Ideal with tasty first courses based on meat sauce, roast poultry and white meats in general. Try with pappardelle with wild boar or with a roast stuffed guinea fowl.

San Felice, a name that echoes through the Tuscan hills, synonymous with winemaking excellence. Born in the heart of Chianti Classico, this historic winery safeguards a heritage of tradition and innovation, spanning 1700 hectares of land, 185 of which are devoted to vineyards. Since 1968, when it gave birth to the first Chianti Classico Supertuscan, Vigorello, San Felice has distinguished itself through its dedication to quality and research. The commitment to enhancing Sangiovese, the emblematic grape of the region, is reflected in prestigious labels like 'Il Grigio' Riserva and Gran Selezione and 'Poggio Rosso' Gran Selezione, acclaimed by international critics and featured in the rankings of top wine magazines. But San Felice is much more than a winery. The Vitiarium, an experimental vineyard dedicated to preserving indigenous Tuscan vines, bears witness to the company's commitment to biodiversity. Over the years, San Felice has broadened its horizons, extending production to Montalcino with the acquisition of the Campogiovanni estate in 1981, and to Bolgheri with the Bell'Aja brand in 2016. Today, the winery continues to shape the history of Italian wine, uniting tradition, innovation, and respect for the terroir. Discover the wines of San Felice and be captivated by the authentic taste of Tuscany.

Gragnano Spaghetti PGI from Pastificio Faella has embodied the essence of Neapolitan pasta-making tradition since 1907. This iconic shape of Italian cuisine is made with 100% Italian durum wheat semolina and pure water from the Lattari Mountains, according to the strict PGI certification specifications. Bronze-drawing creates the characteristic porous, rough surface that perfectly captures every sauce, while slow drying at temperatures never exceeding 48°C preserves the intense aroma of ripe wheat and ensures exceptional cooking stability. A diameter of approximately 2 millimeters makes these spaghetti perfect for any preparation: from the simplicity of spaghetti aglio, olio, and peperoncino to the complexity of carbonara, from the seafood aromas of clams to the richness of the land with San Marzano tomatoes and basil. In eleven minutes of cooking, the pasta is perfectly al dente, elastic, and firm, and never overcooked. The Aticelca 501-certified porcelain paper packaging is completely recyclable, demonstrating the pasta factory's commitment to environmental sustainability.
