Avignonesi and Capannelle: the collection dedicated to an icon of Tuscan wine
The Avignonesi and Capannelle collection gathers some of the most representative labels of a collaboration that has become famous for its balance, personality, and ability to interpret the Tuscan terroir with a modern style. At the center of the selection is the legendary 50&50, born from the meeting of Sangiovese and Merlot, a red wine that combines depth, freshness, and finesse in an unmistakable profile.
This page is designed for those seeking prestigious Tuscan wines, collectible vintages, and large formats capable of enhancing special moments. The selection indeed includes various interpretations of the 50&50, from classic vintages to special formats such as Magnum, Jeroboam, Imperial, and bottles of great enological and scenic impact.
A project born from the meeting of two great realities
Avignonesi and Capannelle are two important names in the Italian wine scene, united in a project that has given rise to one of the most recognizable reds of Tuscany. The result is a wine that dialogues the structure and identity of Sangiovese with the richness and softness of Merlot, maintaining a refined, harmonious, and deeply territorial style.
In the glass, the 50&50 shows a bright ruby color, aromas of violet, rose petals, cherry, and red fruits, with velvety tannins and a long finish. It is a wine that lends itself both to meditative tasting and to the table, thanks to an elegant drinkability and a consistently precise flavor profile.
Vintages, formats, and selection for true enthusiasts
The collection includes labels such as 50 & 50 2012 Rosso Toscana IGT, 50&50 Rosso Toscana IGT 2017, 50 & 50 2016 Rosso Toscana IGT, 50 & 50 2019 IGT Toscana, and 50&50 Toscana IGT 2013, as well as special format versions like 3 Liters JEROBOAM, 5 Liters Imperial, 27 Liters, and MAGNUM. Also available is 50&50 Rosato Toscana IGT 2022, offered in a single wooden box, along with Primat 2020 and the EX VAT versions.
This variety makes the collection particularly interesting for those who wish to choose a bottle to drink today, a reserve to keep, or a large format to gift. The wines of Avignonesi and Capannelle stand out for their ability to combine authenticity, elegance, and stylistic recognizability.
Pairings and occasions for consumption
The reds in the selection pair naturally with structured and flavorful dishes, particularly those based on meat and the Tuscan tradition. They are ideal with pappardelle with hare sauce, roasts, braised dishes, and game, but they also express themselves well in tasting occasions and important dinners, where wine is a central part of the experience.
