Capanna, SanGioBi, Tuscan White Wine 2024

ABOUT THE WINE. Crafted by the historic Capanna estate, Sangiobi 2024 is a unique white wine made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, grown in the Montosoli hills north of Montalcino. Owned by the Cencioni family since 1957, Capanna is one of the most respected names in Tuscany, known for producing exceptional Brunello di Montalcino. With their deep-rooted commitment to quality and innovation, the family has created this elegant blanc de noirs from red Sangiovese grapes – a rare and refined expression of Tuscan terroir.. TASTING NOTES. The 2024 vintage reveals lifted aromas of green apple, white peach and citrus blossom. On the palate, it's fresh and textured, with notes of red apple skin, pear, and a subtle hint of spice from short oak ageing. A delicate thread of minerality carries through to a long, savoury finish, making this a compelling alternative to more traditional white wines.. FOOD PAIRING. Ideal with classic Italian fare – think tomato-based pastas, seafood risotto, or herbed pork tenderloin. Its natural freshness and subtle grip also pair well with grilled vegetables and creamy burrata.. FRIARWOOD SAYS. A rare white wine made from red Sangiovese grapes, Sangiobi is fermented cool in stainless steel after very gentle pressing, without skin contact. A short time in oak adds extra finesse. This is a vibrant, elegant wine that bridges tradition and innovation – a must-try for lovers of Italian whites and unique expressions of Sangiovese.. Discover all the wines from Capanna
