Score 90/100 · Drink 2013-2014, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jun 2007

Capezzana's tasty Ghiaie della Furba 2000, a barrique-aged blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Syrah, is just beginning to reveal the earliest hints of tertiary notes in its suggestions of tobacco, herbs, earthiness, leather, chocolate and black cherries on a full bodied, structured frame. It offers outstanding length on the palate, fine balance, and a lingering note of sweetness from the oak on the finish.

Capezzana's tasty Ghiaie della Furba 2000, a barrique-aged blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Syrah, is just beginning to reveal the earliest hints of tertiary notes in its suggestions of tobacco, herbs, earthiness, leather, chocolate and black cherries on a full bodied, structured frame. It offers outstanding length on the palate, fine balance, and a lingering note of sweetness from the oak on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2014. Capezzana is located in the historic Carmignano appellation, where wine has been produced since Etruscan times. The Contini Bonacossi family traces its winemaking lineage at the estate back an astonishing 12 centuries. The property encompasses 670 hectares of which approximately 100 are under vine. The micro-climate is warm but evening breezes from the nearby Apennine mountains serve to temper the daytime heat. Importer: Moet Hennessy USA, New York, NY; tel. (212) 251-8200
