Regular price $75.00
Sold out

The 2013 Capezzana “Villa di Capezzana 10 Anni” Carmignano DOCG is a beautifully mature Tuscan red, offering layered aromas of Amarena cherry, ripe plum, tobacco, leather, and subtle sweet spice. The palate is supple and savory, balancing vibrant acidity with fine-grained tannins and a long, persistent finish marked by notes of red berries, cedar, and licorice. Elegant yet structured, it showcases the remarkable aging potential of Carmignano’s traditional blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Pair with grilled bistecca alla Fiorentina, rosemary-roasted lamb, wild boar ragù, or aged Pecorino Toscano to complement the wine’s depth, earthy complexity, and refined tannic structure.

A savory nose of tar, soy sauce and iron draws balance from sweeter undertones of blackberries and Maraschino cherries. On the vibrant palate, figs and spices highlight the berries' richness, but balance is preserved by deeper savory notes of soil, coffee and pepper. It still has plenty of room to stretch its legs, even at this age. - Danielle Callegari, Wine Enthusiast 94 Pts.

Details

From our importer: Few wineries in the world possess the stature, respect, and devotion that the Contini Bonacossi family has cultivated and maintained over five generations at their Tenuta di Capezzana winery. The estate is located 12 miles west of Florence in the Carmignano sub-zone, one of the oldest recognized wine-producing areas in Tuscany. The first reference to Capezzana dates to 804 A.D.

Over the centuries, the estate passed through several families. The story of today’s Capezzana began when Count Alessandro Contini Bonacossi and his family returned to Italy after living in Spain and purchased the estate from Raimondo Franchetti’s widow, Sara de Rothschild, in 1920. Not content with this original holding, Count Alessandro acquired the two neighboring farms, “The Poggetto” and “Trefiano,” dividing the property into three distinct estates with more than 120 poderi. The winery was dedicated to producing high-quality wine and olive oil, with the first vintage of Villa di Capezzana in 1925.

Carmignano was first incorporated into the Chianti Montalbano appellation; however, with its unique microclimate, soil composition, and use of international grapes, the Carmignano wines were very different from the Chianti produced by their neighbors. Due to the tireless efforts of Count Ugo, Alessandro’s grandson, DOC status was finally granted to Carmignano in 1975. In 1988, the appellation received DOCG recognition, making it the smallest DOCG in Tuscany.

The estate’s landholdings span 670 hectares—80ha of vineyards and 140ha of olive groves. In 2009, Capezzana began farming organically and achieved official certification for the vineyards and wines in 2015. Today, the estate is in the hands of Beatrice, Benedetta, and Filippo Contini Bonacossi, fourth generation, and Serena and Gaddo Contini Bonacossi, fifth generation. Together, they oversee all aspects of a family business that continues to maintain the stature, respect, and devotion cultivated for centuries.
