2020 toscana Rosso
50 % Cabernet Sauvignon | 50% Sangiovese
An incredibly elegant wine from the estate. In 2020, the vineyard was dry for most of the year and rained somewhat soon before harvest, lessening the intense concentration and adding a bit of softness. The wine was vinified classically, and the oak treatment was quite dialed in after learning from the past vintages. From 2017 until now, this is by far the most elegant and expressive of the wines from La Caccia. Enjoy now through 2050.

About Our Olive Grove
-
The Estate originally had a small half hectare grove of 138 20+ year old orchard trees.
-
In 2018 we expanded our Olive Grove by 4.5 hectares planting over 1,250 additional olive trees. These yielded fruit quickly expanding our olive oil volume by 4 times.

A note from Marc Gagnon about our winemaking process…
“At La Caccia, we first keep original and new plantings separate - from there we further separate the old vine Sangiovese from the Cabernet in case a Reserve barrel can be selected. Fermentation temperatures are lower and maceration is more gentle than our new world projects, and closer to a Bordeaux style. This is in order to maintain an elegance and refinement to the tannins, as the dry farmed sandy soils can lend a firmness and austerity if handled too tough. Elevage is approximately 50% new oak, all French, for 18-22 months. Finally barrel selection is made at the end to only take the cream off the top.” -Marc Gagnon, Winemaker
