Description

The 2021 Isole e Olena Cepparello is a benchmark Super Tuscan and one of the purest expressions of 100% Sangiovese, sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Chianti Classico. It represents a modern, refined interpretation of this iconic wine, combining power with remarkable freshness and precision. The nose is highly aromatic and layered, showing black cherry, plum and wild berries alongside violet, dried herbs, spice and subtle earthy complexity.

On the palate, it is full-bodied yet finely structured, with vibrant acidity, concentrated red and dark fruit, and polished, velvety tannins. The style is more transparent and energetic compared to richer past vintages, delivering balance, minerality and a long, elegant finish with impressive ageing potential.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a flagship Super Tuscan and a must-have for collectors and serious wine lovers. It combines finesse with structure and is built for long-term cellaring. Best from 2027 onwards or cellar for 15–25 years. Perfect with bistecca, braised meats, truffle dishes or special occasion dining

About the region

Tuscany · Chianti

Tuscany, or Toscana, is Sangiovese country. The grape is high in acid and tannin, savoury rather than sweet-fruited, and it changes with altitude and soil: firm and red-fruited in the hills of Chianti Classico, broader and longer-lived at Montalcino where it becomes Brunello. On the coast at Bolgheri the rules loosen and Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot take over, and it is there that several of the wines once labelled Super Tuscan were made.
