Founded in 1865 the estate covers 25ha of vineyards between 270-310m in elevation. At the core of the winery's philosophy has been a commitment to 100% indigenous Tuscan varieties with a focus on Sangiovese based wines. Recently, that philosophy has also welcomed organic viticulture (official in 2011) and a new focus on quality.
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
The organic 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Capannino is a second careful single-vineyard selection from this leading estate based in Castellina in Chianti. I love the broad intensity of this wine and all the velvety cherry, blackberry and plum it awards. There is a pleasing, almost decadent quality to this wine, yet it remains elegant and within the more constrained framework of Sangiovese. That means it shows good depth and freshness too. Production is 15,000 bottles. (ML)
