{"product_id":"2007-isole-olena-cepparello","title":"Isole e Olena Cepparello 2007","description":"The 2007 Cepparello (Sangiovese) makes a case for itself as one of the finest wines ever made at Isole e Olena. It is an open, sublime Cepparello endowed with tons of clarity and definition. The ripe red fruit floats on a core of refined, silky tannins that caress the palate with exceptional elegance and finesse. As the wine sits in the glass its inner perfume gradually emerges, leading to an eternal, beautifully crafted finish. The ripeness of the vintage is beautifully balanced by the acidity that is the trademark of Sangiovese grown in these hillside plots. \u003cb\u003eSimply put, this is an utterly thrilling wine that will be a joy to follow over the coming years. In many ways, \u003ci\u003ethe restraint, elegance and polish all suggest Cepparello is the Haut-Brion of Tuscanys high-end, pure Sangioveses.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e The 2007 Cepparello was fermented in wood uprights and saw three weeks of contact on the skins. Malolactic fermentation took place in equal parts steel and French oak. The final blend was assembled and the wine was subsequently aged in French oak barrels (1\/3 new) for 18 months. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eWine Advocate 96\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037324529903,"sku":"2721","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/isoleolena_cepparello2021-LBL_184f0997-d4b8-42ab-ab4f-d7241e264dd1.png?v=1772599110","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2007-isole-olena-cepparello","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
