Sangiovese Tocana IGT 2024

  The Sangiovese by Caparzo combines the essence of Tuscany's three leading wine-growing regions in an exceptional wine. Under the direction of Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini, a joint project was created between the three wineries Caparzo, Borgo Scopeto and Doga delle Clavule, each of which stands for the highest quality and tradition. The wine symbolizes the connection between these three estates through the historic family coat of arms, in which three roses represent the three wineries.

The grapes from the three regions are vinified separately, with particular care being taken during processing. A portion of the Sangiovese from Montalcino undergoes criomaceration at 8 °C for 48 hours to extract the primary aromas before fermentation continues at 25 °C for seven days. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation and precisely coordinated processes result in a harmonious blend that is rounded off by a slightly higher residual sugar content.

In the glass, the wine is an intense ruby red with violet reflections. The bouquet is intense, fruity and spicy, characterized by ripe blackberries, wild strawberries, fine spices and a subtle hint of vanilla. On the palate, the Sangiovese is full, fruity and soft, with remarkable persistence and a harmonious finish that elegantly combines fruity and spicy notes.

This versatile wine reveals its character at a serving temperature of 16-18 °C and is ideal for social occasions and for lovers of Tuscan wine culture. Since its launch in 2010, it has been a modern expression of classic Sangiovese and a symbol of the collaboration between three outstanding wineries. - Gerardo [TS11/25]
