Caparsa is a vineyard run by Paolo Cianferoni and his big family since 1982. The winery is totally organic certified, both in the fields and in the cellar. Sangiovese is the main grape in Caparsa, which is located in Radda in the Chianti area, may be one of the most charming and beautiful areas in the world and one of the highest-quality wine production areas too. Caparsa wines have a unique and unmistakable acid tone, where the bouquet and the tannins come out at their authentic terroir. That's the reason Caparsa's wines have a very long life.
Mimma is the nickname of Gianna, Paolo Cianferoni's lifelong companion, the artisan winemaker, the mother of his children, and the backbone of the Caparsa microcosm, just outside Radda in Chianti.
But there is more: Mimma IS all the women of Caparsa. In fact, it is dedicated to them.
And perhaps it is precisely because of this clear declination of gender enclosed in the intimacy of a tribute that the Sangiovese here, the result of a rabid selection of grapes, takes a particularly sentimental turn.
Everything flows like a desire, triggered by the proverbial acidity of Caparsa and moved by those vital contrasts that literally MAKE Caparsa.
He founds his essence on radiantly bright expressive registers, without shadows or shyness, unleashing an incredible suppleness soaked in juice and salt in a tuned and wonderfully concrete texture.
