Capezzana - winery in Carmignano

Covering only 200 square hectares of DOCG productive land in Carmignano, Capezzana stands as the largest producer in the region. Despite its size, the farm has retained a remarkable sense of timelessness, remaining relatively untouched compared to other expansive wineries in Tuscany. Managed hands-on by members of the Conti Contini Bonacossi family, this property holds a unique charm. With the original Count and Countess having passed, their seven children, now in their prime, along with their own children, who are young adults actively involved in the family business, make Capezzana truly distinctive in Tuscany.

Following the Medicean tradition, Capezzana produces Carmignano wine, following a recipe that includes Cabernet, introduced from France by the Medici family in the 17th century. The Super Tuscan "Ghaie della Furba" (a blend of Cabernet, Merlot, and Syrah) and the Vin Santo are also highly regarded. The family's olive press, producing olive oil from Moraiolo and Frantoio varietals, adds to the excellence of their offerings.

A tour of Capezzana is an impressive experience, allowing visitors to explore the stunning property and witness historical cellars.
