The 2020 "Il Caggio IPSUS" Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG is a distinguished single-vineyard Sangiovese crafted by the Mazzei family, renowned for their centuries-old winemaking heritage. Sourced from the Il Caggio vineyard near Castellina in Chianti, this wine embodies the family's dedication to producing the finest expression of Chianti Classico.

The 2020 vintage presents a luminous ruby-garnet hue, with an exquisitely defined nose featuring notes of cherries, fresh plums, blood orange, and subtle cedar wood undertones. On the palate, it is polished and refined, showcasing fine-grained tannins and a well-articulated fruit profile of cherries and wild raspberries, culminating in a juicy and characterful finish.

This wine has garnered high praise from critics, including a 99-point rating from James Suckling, who highlights its unique aromas of hibiscus, cherries, violets, and sandalwood, as well as its refined balance and outstanding quality.
