Capezzana Barco Reale Di Carmignano 2020

Most wineries weren’t founded back in 804 A.D. but Tenuta di Capezzana is definitely not like most wineries. Very few can boast the history, stature and respect amongst peers like this great estate. That’s part of what makes this one so special today.

The estate is just 12 miles west of Florence in the Carmignano sub-zone of Tuscany, one of its oldest recognized wine producing areas that wine historians believe may actually date back over 3000 years.

The Contini Bonacossi family is now on their fifth generation of Capezzana winemakers, and amazingly at no point down the line has the quality ever dipped. These guys are one of the best. Of course, given the new technological advancements, the wine is better than it’s ever been and this sprawling estate has racked up every accolade under the Tuscan sun.
