BORGO SCOPETO<br />
TENUTA CAPARZO<br />
TUSCANY, ITALY<br />
Borgo Scopeto is an estate covering an area of 503 hectares (1243 acres),<br />
located in the Siennese commune of Castelnuovo Berardenga, prevalently on<br />
clay soil, with arenaceous elements bonded with limestone. The wine cellar<br />
of Borgo Scopeto, renewed and enlarged over the last few years, is equipped<br />
with the most modern technology for vinification. The refining of the wines<br />
takes place in Slovenian oak barrels of 30/50 hectolitres and French oak<br />
barriques of 300 litres.<br />

The name ‘Caparzo’ seems to originate from Ca ‘Pazzo, as seen in several ancient<br />
maps. The vineyards of the Caparzo Estate include 85 hectares in Montalcino<br />
itself and 4 hectares in Buonconvento. More than 30 years have passed<br />
since the first rows were planted. Tenuta Caparzo aims to ensure top quality<br />
products through meticulous, craftsmanlike techniques, while equally taking a<br />
modern approach to efficiency and innovation. It has kept faith with the traditions<br />
of Brunello and the various local terroirs, at the same time enhancing its wines<br />
with creative spirit and dedication to innovation to ensure the highest possible<br />
quality. This is why Caparzo wines are served by the most famous restaurants in<br />
the world, as well as at international meetings and on official state occasions.<br />
