Isole e Olena Cepparello IGT 2019

Paolo De Marchi has spent decades refining the elegance of the Chianti Classico region, and Cepparello remains his definitive statement. While many of its neighbors were busy blending in international grapes, De Marchi doubled down on 100% Sangiovese, proving that the variety doesn’t need help when it’s handled with this much precision.

The 2019 vintage is a total knockout. It strikes that perfect, elusive balance between power and weightlessness. This isn’t just another Super Tuscan. It is a wine of extreme purity. The 2019 growing season allowed for a slow, even ripening, resulting in a Cepparello that is vibrant and energetic right now, but possesses the skeletal structure to evolve beautifully in your cellar for the next twenty years.
