Capezzana 'Villa di Capezzana' Carmignano (2019)

With vintages dating back to 1925 in their cellar, Villa di Capezzana is the flagship wine of the Tenuta di Capezzana estate and representative of Carmignano's greatest quality. Created as one of the very first protected wine-producing regions in Italy, the history of Carmignano dates back to 1716 when Cosimo III de' Medici granted the area special legal protections which prohibited other regions from using the name "Carmignano" for their wines.

Very elegant, with a grainy sweetness with hints of black cherry and raspberry that scales well with the spicy typical plot of refinement in wood.

Blend: 80% Sangiovese, 20% Cabernet

Tasting Notes

93 James Suckling
A deep set of red plums and berries with some fine tobacco leaf and savory herbs, mineral and porcini. Juicy and intense on the palate with lots of chalky, nicely chewy tannins and a juicy finish. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but better after 2023.
