50 & 50 - Tuscan cult wine made of 50 percent Merlot from Avignonesi and 50 percent Sangiovese from Capannelle. Bright ruby with a fine garnet rim. Noble, very elegant nose with clear notes of ripe cherries, some blackberry, wonderfully balanced. Rich approach on the palate, shows a lot of fruit, then unfolds a densely structured tannin, long final with subtle tobacco and pomegranate notes. SUPERIORE.DE

"Ruby red with light garnet reflections. The nose reveals herbal and floral notes of roses and violets, followed by hints of ripe red berries. Powerful and rich on the palate with a juicy and lingering finish." Falstaff

"The Avignonesi & Capannelle 2018 50 & 50 represents a collaborative effort between two of Tuscany's headline wineries, one located in Chianti Classico and the other in Montepulciano. The results show austerity, dark fruit and Old World elegance. Dark cherry and dried blackberry cede to spice and toasted oak, and mineral hints of campfire ember and pencil shaving add definition and focus." Wine Advocate

"The crushed-stone and currant aromas are very attractive. Hints of cedar, too. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, polished tannins that run the length of the wine. Tight and polished. This needs three to four years to open. Try after 2025." James Suckling
