Tenuta Cappellina DOCG Chianti Classico

A new Chianti Classico from a boutique winery that embodies the rich heritage and terroir of Tuscany’s southernmost Chianti Classico region. Crafted predominantly from 95% Sangiovese and complemented by 5% Canaiolo, this wine reflects a traditional blend that has been cherished for centuries. Aged for 24 months in traditional 30-hectoliter oak casks, the wine develops a harmonious balance between its vibrant fruit character and subtle oak influences. On the palate, it offers a medium-bodied profile and is a very open wine with perfect maturity and juicy red fruit flavours carrying through, all supported by silky tannins and a savoury undertone of earthy minerality. Ideal for pairing with a variety of dishes, from hearty pasta dishes to grilled meats and aged cheeses. 

• Featured by Joanna Simon, “This is a new Chianti for me and I love it. I admit to being slightly alarmed when I saw the alcohol of the 2020, but the balance of fruit and flesh with gentle grip and freshness is spot on – so much so that it’s dangerously easy to drink.” (2020 vintage)
