9.4

Luminous red. Aromas of wild strawberry, red cherry, cinnamon, vineyard peach, and pink flowers. A sweet explosion of floral red fruits and sweet spices follows through in the rich, suave mouth, firmed by a suggestion of orchard fruit pit. Penetrating and perfumed on the very sweet (240g/L r.s.) and very long finish. Remarkably well balanced (the extremely high but harmonious 9.8g/L total acidity allows this super-sweet to convey a very light on its feet quality), this wine from the beautiful but little-known island of Capraia off the Tuscan coast is an absolute knockout. Made from organically farmed grapes air-dried for 14 days. Will work equally well with a plum crumble or a chocolate cake. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, October 2017) — 6 years ago

Deep Ruby with aromas of black fruit and pepper, mostly Sangiovese with small amounts of Colorino and Canaiolo. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry fruit with pepper spice and floral notes. Bold muscular tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, cacao and spice. Drink now! Enjoy with baked balsamic glaze chicken thighs. — 7 months ago

Super small production Vermentino from the Isle of Capraia. Mouthwatering acidity, intense minerality and looooong finish. — 10 years ago

Great wine. Gran selezione is always a bit underwhelming to me but this one holds its own. — 4 years ago
