Its lingering finish reveals subtle hints of chocolate and spice. Ugo Contini Bonacossi truly represents a sublime journey of flavours, making it a desirable choice for discerning wine enthusiasts.

With a legacy spanning eight centuries, this vineyard-based winery is renowned for producing some of Italy's most exquisite wines, boasting of both character and elegance in each bottle.

The estate is located roughly 20 kilometres west of Florence, framed by the splendid Tuscan hills. Tenuta di Capezzana spans over 670 hectares, with woodland, olive groves, and 90 hectares dedicated to vineyards. One cannot help but become captivated by the unabashed beauty of the landscape, where harmony between man-made vineyards and verdant greenery is realised.

Since the 1920s, the Capezzana estate has been under the continuous stewardship of the Contini Bonacossi family. Each generation has shown resolute commitment to maintaining the property's heritage, whilst introducing modern viticulture techniques to ensure the production of distinctive, high-quality wines. Brought forth from the vineyard's fertile soil, are the exceptional bottles of wines such as Barco Reale, Villa di Capezzana and Vin Santo di Capezzana, to name but a few.

However, it's not just high-quality wines that Tenuta di Capezzana is known for. Olive oil production holds an indispensable place in its portfolio, with extra virgin olive oil obtained directly from hand-picked olives.

Indeed, Tenuta di Capezzana's winemaking experience extends far beyond providing delightful wine. The estate also offers a range of culinary courses, wine tasting sessions and picturesque accommodation for those who wish to immerse themselves in a comprehensive Tuscan experience

In essence, Tenuta di Capezzana is a vineyard that honours its history, whilst simultaneously embracing the new. It's an enchanting place where bottles are not just filled with wine, but with centuries of tradition love and dedication; to the art of winemaking.
