Description

I am Count Sebastiano Capponi.

Today I have selected some of our most precious bottles from the family's private collection, to give you the essence of this extraordinary land. Each bottle holds a unique story, a fragment of life that has been treasured within these walls for generations.

These bottles are not only memories of the time that flows here at Villa

Calcinaia, they are an invitation to enter our centuries-old history.

This selection includes:

- Villa Calcinaia Chianti Classico 1969 - A historic and scarce vintage, a bottle to collect or ... to share on those truly special occasions. The format of this bottle is 0.720 Lt, as it used to be in the past.

- Villa Calcinaia Chianti Classico Riserva 2004 - A selection from the estate's sunniest and best exposed hillside vineyards. Long macerations and aging in large 30 hl Slavonian oak barrels and small 500-liter barrels for at least 20 months. A wine of structure and complexity, to be enjoyed with food.

- Villa Calcinaia Casarsa I.G.T. Toscana 2004 - A Super Tuscan made from Merlot grapes, whose original vineyard was planted by mistake in 1967, believing it was Sangiovese. The wine is aged in small 225-liter barriques for 24 months. A wine of elegance and character, to be enjoyed "slowly."

The bottles are individually wrapped in the historical tissue-paper from the 1960s.

In the package you will receive the booklet, autographed and with a personalized message, “Un trinciato di nero e d'argento - I Conti Capponi, il Chianti e la Calcinaia” published by the Capponi Family Study Center and produced in a limited edition for the 500th anniversary of Villa Calcinaia.

The wine will arrive with a precious wooden box sealed with the historical wax stamp of the Capponi Family (*)

(*) For logistical and shipping security reasons, the products and wooden box may travel in 2 separate shipments to be reassembled at your care. We care that these rare wines arrive to you in excellent condition.
