Avignonesi 50 & 50 Capannelle 2019
50&50 is a wine sprung from the friendship which binds the owners of Avignonesi in Montepulciano and Capannelle in Chianti Classico. The first vintage of 50&50 was in 1988 and was born as an experiment, almost by chance: during a festive dinner, the former owners of the two wineries started to compare, mix and match their wines and came up with the even blend of 50% Sangiovese and 50% Merlot, that we know today. They had given birth to something truly unique.

Colour

Deep ruby red.

Bouquet

Aromas of dried cranberries and black cherries intertwine with laurel and Mediterranean herbs scents.
