Isole e Olena's legendary Cepparello represents the pinnacle of Sangiovese expression from Tuscany's prestigious galestro and marly schist soils, where organic viticulture at 350-450 meters elevation creates extraordinary concentration and minerality in this iconic Supertuscan. Pioneer Paolo De Marchi's mastery shines through hand-selected grapes from the estate's finest sites, crafting one of Italy's most celebrated single-varietal Sangiovese wines through meticulous delestage fermentation and careful barrel aging. This dense ruby masterpiece reveals intense black cherry and dark plum aromatics intertwined with distinctive licorice and mineral notes, while the refined palate delivers velvety tannins supporting layers of ripe blackberry, graphite, and subtle oak spice. Cepparello's elegant structure and remarkable aging potential showcase why this high-altitude Chianti Classico territory produces some of Tuscany's most compelling and long-lived wines.
