Dark, polished and intensely perfumed, Castello dei Rampolla d'Alceo 2018 layers saturated blackcurrant and blackberry with hints of sage, mint, licorice and cocoa over a core of vibrant, super-fine tannins. The palate is both powerful and poised, with deep, concentrated fruit that glides across the mouth and a long, precise finish that promises impressive evolution in bottle.

D’Alceo is Castello dei Rampolla’s iconic, biodynamically farmed Tuscan red, a powerful Cabernet Sauvignon–Petit Verdot blend from a single terraced vineyard in Panzano in Chianti. It is known for its deep, concentrated yet weightless profile—ripe dark and red fruits wrapped in cigar box, tobacco, spice, and earthy mineral notes—combined with refined tannins and remarkable aging potential that captures the personality of the site Alceo di Napoli planted.
