Where is Caposaldo wine from?

Answered by Bill Hernandez

Caposaldo is sourced from some of the most renowned wine regions in Italy. Each wine in the Caposaldo portfolio is made from hand-harvested fruit that is carefully selected from low-yielding vineyards. These vineyards are located in prime growing areas in Tuscany, the Veneto, and Lombardy.

Tuscany, known for its picturesque landscapes and historic cities such as Florence and Siena, is home to some of Italy's most iconic wines. The region is renowned for producing high-quality Sangiovese grapes, which are used in the production of Caposaldo Chianti. The rolling hills and Mediterranean climate of Tuscany provide the ideal conditions for growing grapes with great character and depth of flavor.

Moving north to the Veneto region, we find the birthplace of Prosecco, one of the world's most popular wines. The Veneto is also known for producing other notable wines such as Valpolicella and Amarone. The vineyards in this region benefit from the cooling influence of the nearby Alps, as well as the warm breezes from the Adriatic Sea. These unique climatic conditions contribute to the vibrant and expressive flavors found in Caposaldo Prosecco and other Veneto wines.

Lastly, we come to Lombardy, a region in northern Italy known for its diverse wine production. Lombardy is home to the famous sparkling wine region of Franciacorta, which rivals in terms of quality and elegance. The cool climate and mineral-rich soils of Lombardy create the perfect environment for growing grapes that are used in the production of Caposaldo Sparkling wines.

Having personally visited these regions and tasted wines from the Caposaldo portfolio, I can attest to the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that goes into each bottle. The attention to detail in the vineyards, combined with the rich history and winemaking traditions of these regions, result in wines that truly showcase the unique terroir of each area.

Caposaldo wines are sourced from prime vineyards in Tuscany, the Veneto, and Lombardy. These regions, with their diverse climates and soils, contribute to the distinct flavors and characteristics found in each wine. Whether it's a rich and robust Chianti from Tuscany, a refreshing Prosecco from the Veneto, or an elegant sparkling wine from Lombardy, Caposaldo wines offer a true taste of Italy's finest wine regions.
