Description
50 & 50 2012 Rosso Toscana IGT Avignonesi & Capannelle
The 50 & 50 2012 Rosso Toscana IGT by Avignonesi and Capannelle is a Tuscan red wine with a strong personality, born from the meeting of Sangiovese and Merlot in equal parts. A refined and contemporary label, capable of uniting elegance, aromatic intensity, and a harmonious taste structure, designed for those seeking a structured wine that is also silky and dynamic.
Territory and wine style
The Rosso Toscana IGT designation offers expressive freedom and allows reference wineries like Avignonesi and Capannelle to interpret the territory with a personal style. In this case, the blend of the more traditional soul of Sangiovese and the roundness of Merlot gives life to a balanced, modern red with a strong identity. The processing in Slavonian oak truncated cone tanks and the aging of about 18 months in barriques contribute to defining an elegant, deep, and well-refined profile.
