Capezzana, Tenuta di

The Capezzana estate, 24 km north-west of Florence, is owned by the Conti Contini Bonacossi family, and at one point all seven children worked in the business. The younger generation is now firmly in charge of the estate, with daughter Benedetta Contini Bonacossi holding the position of winemaker. The highly talented Stefano Chioccioli, a protégé of the well-known peripatetic winemaker Vittorio Fiore, is the estate’s wine consultant. Capezzana’s wines have never been better and they continue to improve over the years.

Wines from Capezzana, Tenuta di

Producer: Capezzana, Tenuta di
Wine: Barco Reale Tenuta di Capezzana 2007
Region: Tuscany Country: Italy
Grape: Sangiovese Blend
Tasting notes: The 2007 Barco Reale is a blend of 70% Sangiovese, 20% Cabernet and 10% Canaiolo Nero. It is ruby red in colour, with attractive youthful perfumes of ripe, red fruit, strawberries and redcurrants with the French oak adding a spicy depth. On the palate, it has lovely balance between lively, red fruit characters and smooth, spicy tannins. The quality is sustained right to the finish.
