Toscana IGT “D’Alceo” 2018 – Castello dei Rampolla

Castello di Rampolla historic winery in the Conca d’Oro; thanks to winemaker Giacomo Tachis (father of Sassicaia, Tignanello, Turriga, etc.) began its successful path, also made of pioneering choices, such as adhering to biodynamic protocols starting in 1994 and beginning to use terracotta amphorae for aging in 2008. Today they produce about 70,000 bottles divided into six labels, including, in addition to an excellent Chianti Classico DOCG, “D’Alceo,” IGT where the personality and structure of cabernet sauvignon dominates:Intense, warm, refined and elegant. Well-ripened red fruit combines perfectly with notes of mild cigar and tobacco.
