Brand Tenuta di Capraia
Distinct aromas of small red berries including Marasca cherries preserved in alcohol, accompanied by hints of chocolate berries and well-integrated woody notes. It is full-bodied, warm and potent in the mouth with a striking tannic texture that makes the wine very drinkable and elegant. Its good acidity and minerality guarantee a fresh, long finish. The wine has only been stabilized using natural methods and has only undergone very wide filtration; this can lead, especially after long bottle aging, to a natural sediment that does not affect the wine's sensory profile. Pair with stewed meat, game and mature cheeses.

The 2014 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Effe 55 is another fabulous wine from Capraia. Deep, layered and also vertical in its expression of structure, the Effe 55 is a Gran Selezione that is truly grand. The purity of the flavors and textures is positively dazzling. This deep, beautifully resonant Chianti Classico needs time to fully emerge, but it is positively stellar.
