Isole e Olena Cepparello 2020 presents a deep ruby color that hints at its concentrated nature. On the nose, there`s an interplay of ripe black cherry and plum, mingled with herbal notes of sage and a touch of earthy complexity. The palate reveals a medium to full body with a structured acidity, showcasing firm tannins that provide a solid backbone. Dark fruits continue to dominate, complemented by subtle hints of cocoa and spice. This wine is a blend predominantly made from Sangiovese grapes, sourced from the estate`s vineyards in Chianti Classico. Isole e Olena has a long history, with the winery founded in the 1950s and recognised for its meticulous cultivation and winemaking practices. The 2020 vintage reflects the warm growing season, which contributed to the wine`s richness while maintaining a refreshing balance on the palate. Cellaring for several years could enhance its complexity further.
