Casa Del Capo | 2019

Casa Del Capo | 2019

Our experience in the vineyards increases every year, as does the level of tannin ripeness we achieve. This also means we can dare a little more each year in terms of yields. In fact we have come to the conclusion that it is almost better to allow the vigour in our vineyards to blow off steam, rather than cut back excessively. The result are softer, easier wines, more suited to the current consumer taste. Casa del Capo is our everyday “Super Tuscan”. Wonderfully fresh and drinkable with an aromatic touch, it’s main feature is the wonderful Sangiovese red-cherry fruit which is why 1 glass is never enough!

Harvest Notes

After the difficult 2017 and balanced 2018 vintages, 2019 was definitely a step up, though the weather was very similar to 2018. A warm summer freshened by the occasional August thunderstorm, led to a perfect picking season, in which mild days alternated by cool nights gave the extra touches that distinguish an excellent vintage.

The wines are punchy and outspoken, yet balanced, with intensity and concentration balanced by fresh acidity, crunchy fruit and smooth silky tannins. An exceptional vintage and wines that just beg to be drunk.

Harvest Notes

2017 was one of the most challenging vintages in our history. As we are at low altitude, we have more trouble in very dry and hot summers, which is exactly what we faced in 2017. In this year we only made Casa del Capo, using our best grapes that would normally go into our top wines. Therefore we managed once more to make an excellent, fresh, fruity and drinkable Casa del Capo.
