It has been credited with helping revive the quality of Chianti in the 1970s, and its flagship wine – Cepparello – is one of the most famous wines falling under the Super Tuscan designation. The estate lies within the boundaries of the Chianti Classico DOCG, a few hours' drive south of Florence in western Chianti. It was formed from the purchase and consolidation of two neighboring properties – Isole and Olena – by the De Marchi family in the 1950s. In the 1970s, Isole e Olena began a push toward quality, and fourth-generation winemaker Paolo de Marchi began to improve viticulture and viniculture techniques to make better wines in smaller quantities. In 1980, De Marchi released the first vintage of Cepparello, a wine that was then excluded from the title of Chianti Classico as it was 100 percent Sangiovese. It instead was bottled as a Vino da Tavola, or table wine, and joined the ranks of the so-called Super Tuscans, alongside wines like Tignanello and Masseto. These were able to claim the title of Toscana IGT in 1992. Isole e Olena make several other wines, including a Chianti Classico, a Vin Santo, and a range of wines made from more international varieties like Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon under the name Collezione de Marchi. In addition to this, the company makes a Syrah called L'Eremo.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-03T10:27:34-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-29T09:00:21-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","NK2912","other_italian wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Isole e Olena","Region_Tuscany","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Sangiovese"],"price":13900,"price_min":13900,"price_max":13900,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42652716957834,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Isole e Olena | Chianti Classico","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":13900,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/12_e3f20d2f-6a4c-4720-a396-ac013b939987.png?v=1672322445"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/12_e3f20d2f-6a4c-4720-a396-ac013b939987.png?v=1672322445","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Isole e Olena | Chianti Classico at CaskCartel.com","id":23867022606474,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":1486,"width":619,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/12_e3f20d2f-6a4c-4720-a396-ac013b939987.png?v=1672322445"},"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":1486,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/12_e3f20d2f-6a4c-4720-a396-ac013b939987.png?v=1672322445","width":619}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Isole e Olena | Chianti Classico\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a really authentic and beautiful Chianti Classico, offering cherries, orange peel and light undertones of nuts and bark.
