Sangiovese
Villa Calcinaia, nestled in the heart of Chianti Classico near Greve, has been the home of the Capponi family since 1524. Their Cappone Chianti Classico is a testament to that unbroken thread of tradition—a wine that’s both timeless and utterly now.
This is bright, brimming with crushed red cherry, tangy cranberry, green dreams of tomato leaf, and stony minerality. On the palate, it’s smooth as silk—vibrant fruit, pillow-soft tannins, and acidity bright enough to make it as versatile as it is delicious.
This is the bottle you open when friends show up unannounced, when tomato sauce is simmering, or when you’re slicing into a rustic board of salumi and aged pecorino. It doesn’t ask for attention—it earns it, sip after easy sip.
