Lifted blackcurrant, violet and citrus peel aromas give the 2020 Castello dei Rampolla d'Alceo a strikingly vivid nose, leading into a palate packed with concentrated dark fruit, cocoa and spice. The texture is plush and velvety yet carried by taut, finely knit tannins and a nervy line of freshness, making this rich, organically grown Cabernet–Petit Verdot blend feel graceful rather than heavy. It’s a particularly luxurious and complete expression of d’Alceo in a warm vintage, with both power and poise already on display.

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.
