IGT Mimma 2019 wine is produced from a luxurious selection of Sangiovese from Vigne di Caparsa, IGT Toscana Rosso
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.
Mimma '19 is pulled in a limited number of bottles. It is exclusive, like the women to whom it is dedicated.
The label depicts an intertwining of rosehips, from roots to sky, contrasting thorny appearances with the heady scents of life.
