Tuscany, Italy
Isole e Olena
Isole e Olena is a family estate in Chianti Classico run by Paolo De Marchi, a quietly respected figure in Tuscan wine. Cepparello is pure Sangiovese grown on their own land — a wine De Marchi makes to show what the grape can do without blending in Cabernet, which was fashionable at the time.
