About the wine
Avignonesi owes its name to the historic founding family. After decades of research and development, the house established itself as one of the most important wine houses in Tuscany. The aim was to reveal the essence of Montepulciano's terroir. In 2009, Belgian Virginie Saverys took over Avignonesi and introduced organic wine growing methods. Avignonesi thus produces distinctive and even more stylish wines based on the Sangiovese vine on an impressive 107 hectares of vineyards.
Item no. 2001419
Tasting note
Intense ruby red in the glass. The nose shows aromas of blueberries and sandalwood with cinnamon, leather, cocoa and vanilla. On the palate, the spicy taste with strong, well-integrated tannins comes into its own. The aftertaste is wonderfully long.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with fine cuts of meat, game, spicy cheese.
Vinification
The 50 & 50 from Weingut Capannelle will probably already be familiar to some of you. A cuvée made from Sangiovese and Merlot grapes, which each hold their own at 50% in this wine. The Sangiovese grapes come from Capannelle itself, the Merlot from Avignonesi di Montepulciano - two top wineries in Tuscany. After fermentation, this red wine from Gaiole in Chianti is aged for 18 months in medium-toasting French barriques.
