Description

Wine producer in Gaiole in Chianti, Siena, extends over about 20 hectares (16 of Vineyard) and produces about 80.000 bottles of wine a year. Situated in the heart of the Gaiole in Chianti hillsides, the Capannelle winery has been one of the most interesting realities on the Italian wine market since 1975. The owner is James B. Sherwood. The history of Capannelle wine producing dates back to 1974,when Raffaele Rossetti, a 40 year old business man in Rome, decided to purchase an old XVI century farmhouse in the heart of Chianti. The pride of the cellar is the Caveau, realized insteel with modern systems of control for emperature and humidity.

This landmark blend of Merlot and Sangiovese is particularly forceful and bright in this vintage. The 2013 50 & 50 reveals the elegance and the delicate nature of the Tuscan grape fitted next to the creamy and more robust personality of its French counterpart. This is a successful marriage of Yin and Yang that ultimately delivers an authentic sense of purity and lasting freshness. The effect is impressive and beautiful. Wine Advocate 93 (2013)
