Wine.com65% Sangiovese - 35% Cabernet SauvignonIt is a select and limited wine of our most prestigious Campaccio. The production is approximately 12,000 bottles per year. Vinification:After one year of aging in barriques, a selection of Campaccio is made and added 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.The Campaccio Riserva is then left to age in wood for another year.
