Capezzana Carmignano 'Villa Di Capezzana' 2006 Carmignano
Producer: Capezzana
Tasting Notes:
Good depth of colour with a restrained, elegant nose. Perfumes of dark cherry and liquorice give way to spice and plums on the palate. Nicely rounded tannins from the Sangiovese are lifted by the cassis concentration of the Cabernet and melt into a long, perfumed finish.
Grape Variety: 80% Sangiovese 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
ABV: 14%
Country/Region: Italy
Vintage: 2006
The Capezzana estate, 24 km north west of Florence, is owned by
the Contini Bonacossi family. The younger generation is now firmly
in charge of the estates 100 hectares of vineyard, with daughter
Benedetta Contini Bonacossi as winemaker. Stefano Chioccioli is
the estates consultant winemaker. The wines and the olive oil
have an ineffable elegance which marks this estate out from the
crowd. Barco Reale was the biggest property belonging to the
Medici Grand Dukes, and the Capezzana estate was part of this
property. It was surrounded by a wall 50 km long and two metres
high. In 1716, Grand Duke Cosimo III de Medici issued a decree
(Decretu motu Proprio) which effectively demarcated the
Carmignano zone.
