    1982 Vino da Tavola – Capanelle / Raffaella Rossetti (Tuscany, Italy)

    A fully mature, old-school Tuscan red that favours perfume and savoury finesse over power. Brick-garnet with a broad tawny rim, it opens on dried cherry and amarena, rose petal, cedar and sweet tobacco, with hints of orange peel, tea leaf and a gentle balsamic/underbrush note. Mid-weight and silken on the palate: lively, old-world acidity carries savoury red-cherry fruit, dried herbs and subtle leather; tannins are fine and resolved. The finish is long and tapering with cherry skin, cedar spice and dried flowers.

    Producer note: Capanelle/Capannelle’s early Vino da Tavola bottlings from the 1980s sit in the “pre-IGT” super-Tuscan tradition—Sangiovese-led, sometimes with a touch of complementary varieties, raised in older wood (and occasionally small barrels) for aromatic lift and graceful ageing. The “Raffaella Rossetti” designation reflects the period’s private/estate bottling style.

    Serve: 16–18 °C. Stand upright 12–24 hours; very gentle decant for sediment just before pouring.
    Food pairing: Roast chicken with herbs, pappardelle al ragù, porcini risotto, aged pecorino.
