Energy drives the 2021 Isole e Olena Cepparello, with vivid cherry and plum layered over pomegranate, dried flowers and graphite-like minerality. The palate is dense yet refined, its ripe, crunchy red fruit wrapped in fine, chalky tannins and lifted by bright, refreshing acidity, giving a long, focused finish that clearly promises decades of positive evolution. This vintage stands out for its combination of concentration with remarkable clarity and transparency of flavor.

Cepparello is Isole e Olena’s flagship pure Sangiovese “Super Tuscan,” first produced in 1980 and sourced from the estate’s oldest, best-exposed vineyards on galestro soils in the northwestern Chianti Classico hills. Aged around 18–20 months in barrique, it marries the perfume and tension of high-altitude Chianti terroir with the depth, structure, and polish that have made it a benchmark modern expression of Sangiovese.
