In 1981, the Tuscany Brancaia wine journey began. The wineries main priorities have always been a strict commitment to quality and the creation of true wines that are in tune with the environment. Each Brancaia wine is a representation of the enchanted region where it was produced.
Brancaia is now synonymous with premium, typical Tuscan wines. But they have a deeper commitment to excellence.
The Swiss couple Bruno and Brigitte Widmer decided to create their concept of a modern Tuscan top-quality wine with the Brancaia IL BLU in 1988, at the height of the Super Tuscan craze.
With the 2018 vintage, this wine—which is now well-known throughout the world—celebrates its 30th birthday in style. This elegant Anniversary edition features a festive label and a noble wooden box with a Corten steel logo that, like the wine, ages beautifully and becomes even more stunning.
The unmistakable identity of our winery and our vision of winemaking, which is founded on an unwavering devotion to quality and a deep respect for nature, are perfectly embodied by IL BLU.
Deep in colour, Il Blu is sheer class - expressing intense blueberry and black cherry fruit, balanced by a sumptuous oak character It's powerful and concentrated on the palate, with plush, fine tannins and a lovely sense of freshness It opens up beautifully with air, so after spending a bit of time in a decanter, there's nothing to prevent its being enjoyed now, although it could be cellared 10+ years if desired
