The 2023 Sangiovese from Caparzo is a delightful expression of Tuscany's vibrant terroir. Caparzo, established in the late 1960s, boasts approximately 90 hectares of vineyards in Montalcino, situated at 220 metres above sea level with south and south-east exposures. The estate is renowned for its commitment to quality and tradition.
This monovarietal Sangiovese is crafted from grapes sourced across Caparzo's estates in Montalcino, Castelnuovo Berardenga, and Magliano. The winemaking process includes a 15-day maceration period, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruit's freshness. The wine is then aged for 1-3 months in bottle before release.
The 2023 vintage presents a bright ruby red colour with violet reflections. On the nose, it offers aromas of wild berries, cherries, and subtle floral notes. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannins, balanced acidity, and a clean finish.
Ideal pairings include grilled meats, pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces, and aged cheeses. Best served at 16-18°C to enhance its flavours.
