Pack includes:
From the friendship that links the owners of Avignonesi in Montepulciano and Capannelle in Chianti comes the sought after 50&50 wine. The first vintage of 50&50 was 1988: during a jovial dinner the former owners of the two wineries started to compare their wines, and came up with this exceptional blend of 50% Sangiovese from Capannelle and 50% Merlot from Avignonesi. In the nose it shows a fragrance of small red fruits, black currant, black cherry and blueberry. In the mouth it is satisfying and sweetness and tannins are perfectly combined. Ripe fruit and spices return and the aftertaste releases its balsamic mint and thyme. The finish is long and the palate caressed by a silky, soft tannic texture. Vintage 2019 has earned 94pt from Robert Parker and 94pt from James Suckling, cheers!

Food Match

A good marriage of food and wine ideally provides more pleasure than enjoying either one separately. As each of us have different sensitivities to various flavours and preferences, the definition of 'perfect pairing' varies, and this makes up the fun part of food and wine pairing.
