Cantina Arnaldo Caprai turns 50 years old (1971-2021). To celebrate this significant milestone, just as we did in 1996 with the legendary 25 Anni 1993 and in 2011 with the 40 Anni 2007, we have produced a precious 50th Anniversary edition.
We have created a Sagrantino dressed in a precious and essential dress: a work of art in pure gold.
